Summary: Bangladesh's most recent One Day International (ODI) against the World Cup hosts in India was held at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium in 1998.
Virat Kohli has emphasized the significance of not overlooking smaller teams, saying that upsets can occur when you solely focus on stronger opponents. India, having secured victories against Australia, Afghanistan, and their arch-rivals Pakistan, are determined to extend their winning streak to four matches in the ICC World Cup. In the upcoming match, the World Cup hosts will take on Shakib Al Hasan's Bangladesh in match No.17 of the tournament at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Thursday.
Recognizing the current pattern of surprising outcomes and lopsided matches, Team India is likely to stick with their current playing XI against Bangladesh. Paras Mhambrey, the bowling coach, mentioned on the eve of the World Cup match that they don't plan to make changes to their bowling lineup against Bangladesh. Consequently, the experienced fast bowler Mohammed Shami is anticipated to remain on the sidelines in Pune.
While England and South Africa have faced unexpected losses, India has initiated its World Cup journey with three consecutive victories. Bangladesh, the visiting team, is keeping an eye on the condition of their captain, Shakib Al Hasan, who sustained a quadriceps injury during their match against New Zealand. India, with a convincing win over Bangladesh, has the potential to overtake New Zealand on the World Cup points table. Being the only team to win all four of their initial games in the tournament, India can match New Zealand's accomplishment by defeating Bangladesh in Pune.
Bangladesh is ending a 25-year gap with their first ODI against India. The last time was in 1998. Captain Shakib has taken 10 wickets against India since 2022. Kohli, the former Indian captain, has scored four centuries against Bangladesh in 15 ODIs with an average of 67.25. Star bowlers like Shakib, Taskin Ahmed, and Mustafizur Rahman have taken five-wicket hauls against India in ODIs.
