India (Match Odds- 1.62)

Preview

India met Nepal in a game that they had to win because their match against Pakistan was counted as nil due to rain. The Indian team was under intense scrutiny due to their recent performance, therefore they needed to win this game with ease. India didn’t have a fantastic start after choosing to field first after winning the toss. They let Nepal off the hook and they ended up with a 65-run opening stand by dropping three catches in the first five overs. But in the middle overs, the bowlers gained control and dismissed Nepal for 230. India needed to reach their target of 147 in 23 overs despite the game being affected by rain. The leading wicket-taker, Ravindra Jadeja, finished with 3 for 40 in his 10 overs.

India had to make sure they got off to a strong start if they were to reach the amended aim. In what turned out to be a fairly one-sided game, Rohit Sharma and Shubhman Gill more than met that expectation by finishing the chase by themselves. Gill looked reliable as he batted 67 off 62 balls, while Rohit Sharma scored 74 off 59.

Full Squad:

Rohit Sharma (c), Hardik Pandya (vc), Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, K L Rahul (wk), Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, Tilak Varma, Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja, Ishan Kishan (wk), Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammad Shami, Mohammed Siraj, and Jasprit Bumrah.

Players to watch out for:
