T20 World Cup: Taskin Not Picked As Bangladesh Elect To Bowl First Against India
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.
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’ve played some good cricket and we hope to continue. It looks a good pitch, 150-160 will be a good score I think."
