Team News
India is playing without their regular skipper Virat Kohli, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Bhuvanehwer Kumar.
But the young squad has done well so far in this series under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma who is in great form.
There is going to be one change in the Indian line-up that played against Sri Lanka. KL Rahul will play in place of Rishabh Pant.
Bangladesh is unlikely to alter their winning line-up but there are obvious question marks next to Sabbir Rahman and Taskin Ahmed after the Sri Lanka game.
