An important match of Group 2 of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 between India and Bangladesh is set to take place at Adelaide on Wednesday as its outcome will very much help to determine the two semi-finalists from the group.
In the Points Table, both India and Bangladesh have 4 points each after playing three matches.
If India win today, they will jump to top place in Group 2, surpassing South Africa which currently have 5 points. But if Bangladesh clinch a victory, then the situation will even become more complicated and the significance of teams’ net run rate will surge manifold.
