IND vs BAN Pitch Report

The pitch at the MA Chidambaram Stadium is generally slow and sluggish. However, there have been much talks about the red soil used here and the more bounce that will be available in this match. So, we can expect a batting-friendly track with true pace and bounce, especially on the first two days of the match. However, red soil pitches wear away quicker; hence, spinners will come into the game early in this match. Expect the ball to turn uncomfortably for the batters by the third day of the game. 

IND vs BAN Fantasy Tips

India Heavy Fantasy XI

  • Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Rishabh Pant will be key players in India's batting. These three players can give you good returns. 
  • Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja will be the two most important picks for the game. If Kuldeep Yadav plays, then pick him in your XI. If he is a part of the XI team, Akash Deep could also be a crucial choice.

Bangladesh Heavy Fantasy XI

  • Shadman Islam, Litton Das and Mushfiqur Rahim will be the key picks from the Bangladesh batting. 
  • Shakib al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz might be the best bets for Bangladesh in bowling. However, these two players can give you points with both their trades. 

IND vs BAN Winner Prediction

Looking at the on-paper strengths of the two teams, India look a stronger side and are the favourites to win the game. However, after their show in Pakistan, Bangladesh will be confident and can pull off a surprise here.

As far as the expected playing conditions are concerned, the team batting first will have an advantage in the game. 

IND vs BAN Top Player Picks

Rohit Sharma [X]Rohit Sharma [X]

Rohit Sharma (IND)

The pitch at Chennai will be best for batting against the new ball. With his new aggressive batting approach, Rohit Sharma might get settled by the time spinners come into the attack and score big. Therefore, Sharma can be a vital pick for the fantasy contests. 

Ravichandran Ashwin (IND)

When it comes to Test cricket in India, Ravichandran Ashwin is unarguably one of the biggest match-winners. Ashwin can earn significant fantasy points in this match with his all-round abilities. 

Mushfiqur Rahim [X]Mushfiqur Rahim [X]

Mushfiqur Rahim (BAN)

The veteran Bangladeshi batter was in brilliant form in the recently concluded Pakistan series. Mushfiqur Rahim has good numbers against India and could hence be one of the highest point earners from the Bangladesh team. 

Mehidy Hasan Miraz (BAN)

In the recent series against Pakistan, Mehidy Hasan Miraz was the best bowler for Bangladesh. With his current bowling form and ability to bat lower down the order, Miraz looks like a high-return pick for fantasy contests. 

IND vs BAN Differential Picks

Yashasvi Jaiswal (IND)

The young Indian opener has impressed with his exploits in the international arena. Yashasvi Jaiswal’s naturally aggressive style batting might be tough for the Bangladesh team to handle, and he can earn you high points if he is a part of your fantasy XI. 

Shakib al Hasan (BAN)

The veteran Bangladesh all-rounder has not been in the best of batting forms lately. However, Shakib al Hasan has been decent with the ball and can be a good contributor with either of his trades. 

IND vs BAN Fantasy Expert Advice

With expected playing conditions and the probable XIs of the teams in mind, a 2-4-3-2 or a 2-4-4-1 combination looks rewarding for the game.
