India will face Bangladesh in the 4th T20I of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai on September 24 at 08:00 PM IST.
Both teams have made a strong start to the Asia Cup campaign and will look to extend their momentum in this crucial encounter. India dominated Pakistan with a 6-wicket win and followed it up with a 21-run victory against Oman. Bangladesh, on the other hand, impressed with a thrilling 4-wicket win against Sri Lanka and an 8-run win against Afghanistan.
India have a dominant head-to-head record over Bangladesh, winning 9 of their last 10 meetings. This psychological edge, coupled with their strong recent form, makes them firm favorites heading into this clash.
For India, Abhishek Sharma has been among the consistent run-getters with 99 runs so far, while Kuldeep Yadav has been exceptional with the ball, picking up 8 wickets in just 3 matches. Bangladesh will rely on Towhid Hridoy, their top scorer with 127 runs, and Mustafizur Rahman's clever variations, which have already fetched him 7 wickets.
India are in red-hot form, with back-to-back wins over Pakistan and Oman after a convincing victory against England earlier. Their batting order looks solid, while their spin attack has been match-winning.
Bangladesh bounced back strongly in the Asia Cup after earlier defeats, with wins over Sri Lanka and Afghanistan. Their middle-order has stabilized under pressure, but they will need consistency to overcome India's depth.
India: 9 wins
Bangladesh: 1 win
India have dominated this rivalry in recent years, holding a massive edge. However, Bangladesh's improved form in this Asia Cup makes them a dangerous opponent.
India Playing XI (Probable): Sanju Samson (wk), Jitesh Sharma, Abhishek Sharma, Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shubman Gill.
Bangladesh Playing XI (Probable): Litton Das (wk), Towhid Hridoy, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan, Afif Hossain, Jaker Ali Anik, Mehidy Hasan, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Shoriful Islam, Mahedi Hasan.
The pitch at Dubai generally offers balanced conditions with average help for both pacers and spinners. Teams batting first have posted around 140–150 on average, with first innings producing 144 runs and the second innings slightly lower at 127. Pacers get movement under lights, while spinners find grip in the middle overs. A target around 160 could be a competitive score.
India's balance in both batting and bowling departments, combined with their dominant record over Bangladesh, gives them the upper hand. Bangladesh will need a collective effort from both batters and bowlers to challenge the in-form Indian side.
