India are only one of the three sides alongside Australia and South Africa to have remained undefeated in the tournament, after beating Afghanistan by 47 runs at Barbados. A win for India on Saturday will strengthen their prospects of entering the semifinals, and in turn, will make things tougher for Bangladesh, who lost their previous Super Eight stage game to Australia at this venue.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After winning the toss, Shanto said pacer Taskin Ahmed is not included in the playing XI, with Jaker Ali replacing him. \"We'll try to restrict them to a small total and then chase it down. It's very important, it's a good opportunity to play here, we\u2019ve played some good cricket and we hope to continue. It looks a good pitch, 150-160 will be a good score I think.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
India also lead the head-to-head record against Bangladesh in Men\u2019s T20Is by 12-1. Moreover, despite a few games running close, India have never lost to Bangladesh in the four meetings between the two teams in Men\u2019s T20 World Cups. More recently, India beat Bangladesh by 60 runs in their lone warm-up game ahead of the ongoing tournament at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on June 1. India skipper Rohit Sharma said they are fielding an unchanged playing eleven.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe wanted to bat and that's what we got. Looks like a good wicket and depends on how much the sun is beating down and making the pitch slow. Important to assess the conditions quickly. Important to stay in the present and not worry about other things,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
