Just a few days ago, Bangladesh were hoping for a Sri Lankan victory. Now, the rivalry reignites as Bangladesh take the field in Dubai for the first time in this tournament. After a dominant win over Hong Kong, a heavy defeat to Sri Lanka, and a narrow victory against Afghanistan, they head into this clash with mixed momentum.
Bangladesh made four changes to their playing XI for the Afghanistan match but fielded only four frontline bowlers. The big question now: will they adjust their winning combination for today’s high-stakes encounter?
