IND vs BAN ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips, Cricket World Cup 2023
India take on Bangladesh on Thursday afternoon in Match 17 of the 2023 Cricket World Cup at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune. It has been an excellent start to the tournament for India the hosts who have won three out of three with victories over Australia, Afghanistan and Pakistan so far. Bangladesh got off to a strong start when they beat Bangladesh in their opener but they have since been beaten by 137 runs by England in Dharamsala and 8 wickets by New Zealand in Chennai. Read on as we preview this day-night game. The match gets underway at 14:00 local time.
India have brought the form which saw them win the 2023 Asia Cup last month into this competition and they look like one of the strongest teams in the 2023 Cricket World Cup. Although Bangladesh have a good record against India, the hosts have rarely played their strongest team and we expect that to change for this game.
Bangladesh lost a wicket from the first ball of the game against New Zealand and never really recovered to properly challenge the Black Caps in Chennai. Shakib Al Hasan’s side will need to produce their best showing of the tournament if they are to compete against India in this match.

IND vs BAN Match Toss Prediction
Three of the last four ODIs in Pune have been won by the team batting first and we predict that both skippers will choose to bat first if they win the toss ahead of this match.
IND vs BAN Pitch Report
There has not been an ODI at this venue since March 2021 but we can expect a good batting track at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium. Pace bowlers should get assistance from the pitch throughout the match.
The average 1st innings score is around 300 with 6.10 average runs per over on this ground. The team batting first has to score more than 300 runs to be able to defend. In the past, India has successfully chased a target of 351 against England at this venue.
Pune Weather Report
The forecast is for some cloud cover to be present throughout this match but no rain is expected at any time during the game. The temperature is likely to be above 30 degrees for the majority of the fixture.

There was only one change announced by Rohit Sharma at the toss ahead of the big game with Pakistan on Saturday with opener Shubman Gill full recovered from illness and replacing Ishan Kishan at the top of the order. Ravichandran Ashwin and Mohammed Shami continue to not find a place in the XI.
India Team Key Players
- Rohit Sharma - The Indian right-handed opener is one of five players to have hit over 200 runs in the tournament from their opening three matches. He is leading the team with plenty of confidence at the moment.
- Virat Kohli - The number three batter hit scores of 85 and 55 not out from his first two games of the Cricket World Cup 2023 but he will be keen to contribute in this match after being dismissed for 16 against Pakistan.
- KL Rahul - KL Rahul is proving to be a reliable middle-order batter for India. He has scored 116 runs in 2 innings so far and we are backing him as a key batsman for this match. Rahul has smashed 191 runs in 5 ODIs against Bangladesh.

There was one change for the Tigers ahead of the defeat against New Zealand with Mahmudullah coming into the side and off-spinning all-rounder Mahedi Hasan dropping out. Skipper Shakib Al Hasan required a scan after picking up an injury whilst batting against New Zealand but should be fine for this match.
Bangladesh Team Key Players
- Mehidy Hasan Miraz - The 25 year old has been in excellent ODI form over the last 12 months and is approaching 100 runs in the tournament. He began the campaign with 57 and 3-25 with the ball.

- Shakib Al Hasan - The all-rounder captain hit 40 runs from 51 balls in the last match and also picked up the key wicket of Devon Conway. He will always contribute in some way for his team.
- Mustafizur Rahman - The left-arm pacer responded well after leaking 70 runs and going wicketless against England. He has shown good form over the last month and dismissed the dangerous Rachin Ravindra last Friday.
- Shoriful Islam - Shoriful Islam is having a good World Cup so far with 5 wickets in 3 matches. We are backing him as a key bowler for this match. Shoriful has picked 40 wickets in 25 ODIs so far

India vs Bangladesh Betting Odds
It is no surprise to see India as the overwhelming favourites for this match and they can be backed at 1.09 with the bookies. Bangladesh are long shots at 6.50 to win.
Who will win India vs Bangladesh ODI Match?
Bangladesh have some really talented players but very few would make it into India’s World Cup squad let alone their first XI. India have the top quality players and they are the top team for this fixture.
🏆 India vs Bangladesh Prediction
We can expect a big crowd in Pune for this match and the spectators should be treated to an excellent ODI on Thursday. India were always expected to be near the top of the group stage but they have played better than most pundits had predicted and look to be somewhere near their best already. Bangladesh have picked up good results against India over the last year but the matches were either during a period when India were not focusing on this format or when they had already qualified for the Asia Cup Final. We are predicting India to be on top in this match from early on and to go on and win the game.
