India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Suryakumar Yadav’s Team India will be up against Bangladesh in the first T20I in the newly-built Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium in Gwalior. The focus will be largely on Mayank Yadav who is expected to unleash his raw speed in the absence of India’s T20 regulars.
Besides Mayank, fellow Delhi pacer Harshit Rana and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy could also make their India debut throughout the series. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya are the two big names in the squad while the only other member of the triumphant World Cup unit here is pacer Arshdeep Singh.
The series will mark the comeback of mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy, whose international career came to an abrupt halt following the disastrous 2021 T20 World Cup in the UAE. The other specialist spinner in the squad is Ravi Bishnoi.
Jitesh Sharma, who has been picked as the reserve wicket-keeper, has not played since the IPL in June. The Vidarbha cricketer has not done much to write home about in the nine T20s he has been part of. He will be desperate to get a game.
