Imperious Pant leads India to warm-up win over Bangladesh

India vs Bangladesh

Bangladesh recently lost a 2-1 series to the USA but there were still some encouraging moments. One highlight was their exceptional fielding, particularly Mahmudullah's magnificent catch at the boundary. He used nimble feet and expert handling to eliminate Dube who had scored 14 runs.

However, some worries will arise among the spectators upon witnessing Shoriful Islam exit the pitch in discomfort just one ball before the end of the innings. He had placed his left hand behind Hardik Pandya's shot.

India did not have Virat Kohli, who only joined the team later due to his participation in the IPL. He was then given the opportunity to rest.

Captain Rohit Sharma suggested that he has not finalized his team's starting line-up for the match against Ireland on Wednesday. During the post-match ceremony, he mentioned that they have a good roster of 15 players and would need to assess the weather and other factors before deciding on the best combination.

Overall, the limited-number trial run at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium went well as a precursor to the start of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup in 2024.
