India is on the brink of sealing a whitewash as they prepare to face Bangladesh in the third and final T20I at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Saturday, October 12. Having already secured the series, Suryakumar Yadav ’s team is looking to finish the series unbeaten.
India kicked off the series with a commanding 7-wicket victory against Najmul Hossain Shanto’s Bangladesh in Gwalior on Sunday, October 6. The hosts followed that up with an emphatic 86-run win at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, clinching the series 2-0. Now, they’ll aim to close out the series with another convincing performance in Hyderabad.
This will be India’s first T20I at the Hyderabad venue since 2022, when they successfully chased down 187 against Australia. The ground has been favorable for high scores, with India having chased down 209 against West Indies in 2019, which remains the highest successful chase at the venue.
For Bangladesh, this will be their maiden T20I in Hyderabad. Known for being a batting-friendly ground, the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium has seen plenty of runs in the past, especially during the IPL 2024 , which featured several high-scoring matches. Bangladesh will be hoping to counter India's strong home advantage and finish the series on a high.
India’s 221-run total in Delhi in the second T20I showcases the batting firepower they bring to the table, and another run-heavy contest is expected, especially if India bats first.
The previous T20I at this venue featured a high-scoring contest between India and Australia, where Australia posted 186/7 with standout performances from Cameron Green and Tim David. India chased it down thanks to fifties from Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav, securing the win with a ball to spare.
In IPL 2024, Hyderabad witnessed another exciting chase when Sunrisers Hyderabad pursued 215 to defeat Punjab Kings. Nitish Kumar Reddy, now part of the Indian squad, contributed a vital 37 but struggled with the ball, conceding 54 runs in 3 overs.
