IND vs BAN Dream11 Prediction: After the two-match Test series, it’s time for the three-match T20I series between India and Bangladesh, with the first match set to start on Sunday. India dominated throughout the Test series, which they won 2-0. However, the visitors are expected to put up a close fight in the T20Is, mainly due to the absence of several key players from the Indian team. But this series offers a golden opportunity for India’s fringe players as well as first-timers like pace sensation Mayank Yadav and all-rounder Nitish Kumar.
Nitish Kumar was named in the five-match ODI series against Zimbabwe after the 2024 T20I World Cup but couldn’t make his debut due to injury. Harshit Rana was also part of India’s squad on the Zimbabwe tour but didn’t make his debut back then. The duo will be eager to don the coveted India jersey for the first time in this series.
With big names like Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill, Axar Patel, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Mohammed Siraj rested ahead of the three-match Test series against New Zealand, the onus will be on the young guns to shine and prove their worth. But there’s no shortage of experience in the team, which is being led by Suryakumar Yadav, while the presence of players like Hardik Pandya, Sanju Samson, and Arshdeep Singh gives the team much-needed balance.
Just like India, Bangladesh is also going through a transition period following the retirement of star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan. However, the visitors are not lacking in quality. All-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz returns to the T20I squad for the first time in 14 months, while T20 specialist Mustafizur Rahman is also back in the team.

IND vs BAN Pitch & Weather Report
Pitch Report: The India vs Bangladesh first T20I marks the return of international cricket to Gwalior after 14 years. There’s excitement in the city as fans eagerly anticipate the Indian team’s outing at the newly-built Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Stadium. Fans are curious about how the pitch will play—whether it will lead to a low-scoring contest or a run-filled encounter.
In reality, the match is likely to produce a high-scoring affair, as the pitch at this venue is flat and should remain consistent throughout the 40 overs. The toss is not expected to have a significant impact, with both the team batting first and the team chasing having an equal chance of winning this match.
Weather Report: Although summer is retreating, it’s still quite warm across much of India for a cricket match. Gwalior is no exception, with temperatures expected to stay in the mid-30s for most of the day. However, since this is an evening game, the conditions should cool down by a few degrees as the match progresses.
