IND vs BAN: Pitch Report
The MCA Stadium is renowned for being a batsman's paradise. Historically, the surface here has consistently favoured the batters, allowing them to play through the line and amass big scores. Though only 7 ODIs have taken place on this ground, the average first-inning score stands impressively at 307. Notably, teams batting first have often found themselves in an advantageous position, clinching victory in 4 out of 7 games. India's remarkable 356/2 against England in 2017 is the highest score recorded at this venue, while the lowest was 232, also by India, against Australia in 2013. It's been two years since a match was last hosted here, leading to some speculations about the pitch's current behaviour. Yet, given the ground's reputation for high scores, the captain winning the toss might be inclined to bat first, aiming to pile up runs and subsequently pressurize the team batting second.
IND vs BAN: Head-To-Head ODI Record
The Indian team holds a dominant position over Bangladesh in ODI cricket. India has secured victories in 31 out of 40 ODI clashes. Bangladesh, on the other hand, has managed to win eight times, with one game in 2014 ending without a result. In the context of ODI World Cups, India continues to have the upper hand, boasting three victories compared to Bangladesh's solitary win.
