Team India are taking on Bangladesh in the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 clash at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Both the sides won their respective opening matches in the Super 4 round. The Men in Blue got the better of Pakistan by six wickets, while Bangladesh beat Sri Lanka by four wickets.
India will begin the game against Bangladesh as favorites. They have a splendid 16-1 lead in the head-to-head battle against their opponents in T20Is. However, no opposition can be taken lightly in this format. Any team can beat any side on a given day. All it could take is a few moments of brilliance.
Team India will be happy with their overall performance so far. But, they have a few areas to improve. They were not at their best in the dead rubber against Oman. Also, they dropped four catches in the previous match against Pakistan and were lucky that it did not have a defining impact on the contest.

Today's IND vs BAN pitch report
"Out of the 7 games played at this venue in this tournament, 5 have been won by the teams chasing but it is a fresh surface. Forty two wickets for fast bowlers and 42 for the spinners as well, the reason for that is the fast bowlers have matched the spinners as they have got swing in the powerplay and taken the pace off.” - Simon Doull and Ravi Shastri
