At Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, sunny skies with sporadic clouds and a comfortable 26°C temperature are predicted that day. There’s very little risk of rain; therefore, the game will go on unhindered. The pitch there usually provides a fair game, with mediocre conditions for both bowling and batting. As the match goes on, pacers should anticipate some help, while spinners might rediscover their footing. A first-inning score of 160–170 can be competitive, given previous results at this venue.

Meeting statistics

The current form of India

With a youthful and seasoned team, India should be able to keep up its momentum going into the third T20I. Players who were crucial in the second match, such as Rinku Singh and Reddy, will be crucial in the third as well. The depth of the “Men in Blue” is evident in Reddy’s outstanding innings and bowling performance (appealing odds were set on him by online ecoPayz cricket betting sites for a total in the third match of the series) and Rinku’s dependability that provides steadiness in the middle order.

India could once again cause problems for Bangladesh and limit its rival’s batting efforts since their bowlers, especially all-rounders and spinners, are in excellent form.

The current form of Bangladesh

Bangladesh will be itching to win the series after suffering two straight defeats. Its captain, Najmul Hossain Shanto, and other top-order batters will have to figure out how to match India’s methodical bowling. Despite Mohammad Mahmudullah’s tenacity in the second Twenty20 International, the team as a whole couldn’t offer significant assistance.

The bowling and batting units of the “Tigers” must work together harmoniously in order to be competitive. To have a chance, their bowlers must contain India’s aggressive batsmen early on, especially in the powerplay.

Head-to-head

Throughout the history of T20I, these two teams encountered one another 16 times. India prevailed 15 times, while one series ended in Bangladesh’s win. India took down Bangladesh in all five home matches.
