BAN vs IND 2023 Dream11 Prediction: Playing XI Fantasy Cricket Tips Pitch Report for 1st T20I

Bangladesh is all set to host India in the first T20I of the three-match series at the iconic Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Sunday (July 9). Led by the talented Harmanpreet Kaur, the Indian side enters the series after a long gap from international cricket.

It is worth mentioning that India’s last T20I game was in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup held in South Africa, which they unfortunately lost to eventual champions Australia.

The Bangladesh tour will surely pose a challenge for the Women in Blue as they take the field without the services of pacer Renuka Singh Thakur and wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh. However, Yastika Bhatia and the uncapped Uma Chetry are the two wicketkeeping options available for the Indian team in the absence of Richa on the tour.

On the other hand, the Bangladesh team is eager to bounce back from their recent 1-2 series loss against Sri Lanka. With their home-ground advantage, the Bangladeshi side will aim to utilize their strengths and challenge the Indian team with their skilful gameplay.

Pitch Report:

The pitch at the Shere Bangla National Stadium generally tends to favour bowlers. The average first innings score at the venue is 107. However, batters can also dominate if they spend some time in the middle. The highest recorded total at this ground was 140 runs, set by Australia Women in 2014.
