BAN - 6/1 (1)

This is going to be the first T20I match on the newly made ground. The pitch looks good to bat on with a little bit of dry grass on it. Black soil is used for the strip and there will be no dew during the second inning as well. A batters' paradise for sure but let's see what India can take from their fierce fast bowlers while bowling first.

Varun Chakravarthy will be playing his first T20I match after 2021 for India. Nitish Kumar Reddy was given his debut cap by Parthiv Patel and Mayank Yadav received that from Murali Karthik. Indian team looks more difficult to beat on paper. Let's see.

104 Khaleel Ahmed (2019-24)
86 Varun Chakravarthy (2021-24) *
73 Sanju Samson (2015-20)
70 Shivam Dube (2020-23)
