Preview
India are going to play the match 17th of the ODI World Cup 2023 against Bangladesh at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. The Indian cricket team has been in red hot form in the flagship tournament so far, winning three matches against quality opponents easily, while the Tigers have registered only one victory in three matches. In their last five meetings in ODIs, Bangladesh have a 3-2 head-to-head record against India, which could mean that their upcoming match in the quadrennial spectacle delivers competitive cricket from start to finish.

Pitch Report
Analysis
The batting lineup of India hasn’t had difficult targets to chase in the ODI World Cup 2023 yet, but the likes of the captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, and KL Rahul have made the most out of the opportunities to bat in the flagship tournament. The bowling attack for the Men in Blue has been a huge strength in the quadrennial spectacle, especially with Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav showcasing some of their best form in the ODI format in recent memory.
On the other hand, the top order of Bangladesh hasn’t been consistent in the ODI World Cup 2023, but the decent contributions from Mushfiqur Rahim and Towhid Hridoy in the middle order allowed the team to put totals of some worth on the board. In the bowling department, the captain Shakib Al Hasan is holding the team together, while the likes of Mustafizur Rahman and Shoriful Islam have bowled a couple of decent spells in the first three matches of the flagship tournament too.
