Indian skipper said after winning the toss - "Looks a good track, looks a little bit dry, But over the course of this tournament, we have seen the wicket gets better and better [for batting] as the game progresses.
So it's better to have a target on the board."
Even the rain factor has to be considered as experts opine that Rohit Sharma has done the right decision in putting Bangladesh in to bat first. In this tournament, they chased down a massive score of 214 runs scored by the Lanka in the league game. However, It's a cloudless day, and all signs point to an uninterrupted game of cricket.
