IND VS BAN, 2nd ODI Highlights: Bangladesh Wins By 5 Runs

The cricket team was defeated by Bangladesh by 5 runs on Wednesday. Rohit Sharma performed well & hit 51 runs in 28 balls. But he got injured at the end.

After a painful one-wicket loss to Bangladesh in the first ODI on Sunday in Mirpur, Team India will try to rebound on 4th December. 

If Bangladesh’s team, led by Rohit Sharma, wants to stay in this three-match ODI series, they must win this game.

India, which lost the most recent ODI series to New Zealand 1-0 last month, will be anxious to avoid consecutive losses.

Team India’s performance in the first game was generally disappointing as they were bowled out for just 186 runs after electing to bat first. 

Players like leader Rohit Sharma & former captain Virat Kohli also struggled with the bat. If vice-captain KL Rahul hadn’t made a valiant half-century, the total would have been significantly lower. 

His efforts with the bat were in vain, though, when he failed to make a key catch of Mehidy Hasan Miraz in the latter moments of the game, costing Team India the game.

The last time the two teams squared off in an ODI series, MS Dhoni’s Indian team fell short 1-2, winning just the final dead rubber. 

Among all Shakib al Hasan in good form, Litton Kumar Das will lead Bangladesh in hopes of repeating that win.

It will be intriguing to see if captain Rohit Sharma opts to make any adjustments, especially in terms of wicketkeeping responsibilities. 

With Rishabh Pant sidelined due to injury, Rahul has been given the ball, although Ishan Kishan is also standing by. 

All-rounder Axar Patel was unable to participate in the first game, but India is hopeful that he will be ready to do so beginning with the second.
