Nidahas Trophy 2018: India's predicted XI to take on Bangladesh in the final

Wicketkeeper and all-rounder

In the absence of MS Dhoni, Dinesh Karthik has performed really well. He hardly got a chance to make an impact in the first two T20Is but stepped it up when it mattered the most in the third T20I against Sri Lanka with an unbeaten 39 to take his team home.

All-rounder Vijay Shankar has shocked everyone with his brilliant performances with the ball in the ongoing tournament. Though he was unlucky not to be amongst the wickets, he has done a brilliant job in the middle overs by varying his pace and length to keep the batsmen at bay. He is yet to get a chance to show his batting powers and will look to continue his good work with the ball and do well with the bat if he gets a chance to swing his willow in the final.
