Hot Picks for IND vs BAN 1st T20I: Dream11 Prediction & Fantasy Cricket Tips

Suryakumar Yadav: You just can’t drop Suryakumar Yadav in T20Is, can you? The flamboyant batter is just magnificent in what he does. 2,432 runs at an average of 42.67 and at a SR of 168.65 is what SKY has scored in the format for India. Bangladesh have a couple of off-spin options but SKY enjoys a phenomenal record against that type of bowling (average of 80 at a SR of 142.9). He will bat at number 3 and will have huge chances of shining. Since July 2023, Suryakumar has hammered 3 centuries in the format. But coming after an injury, he will be under the scanner.

Hardik Pandya: Another veteran in the ranks is Hardik Pandya, whose bowling has soared in recent times. In fact, he has taken 18 wickets in the last 14 T20s at a bowling average of 21.6. Against Bangladesh, Pandya enjoys a stellar record. He has 101 runs at a SR of 174.1 and even has 6 wickets.

Abhishek Sharma: A hard-hitting opener, Abhishek Sharma was in some ominous during IPL 2024. In fact, this year, he has 608 runs at a strike rate close to 200, including 3 fifties and a century. He can even take wickets with his left-arm spin.

Captain and Vice-captain Choices:

Hardik Pandya: Who is the safest captaincy choice? Hardik Pandya is the answer. As mentioned above, he is just a class apart from the rest and enjoys a phenomenal record against Bangladesh. He will act as a finisher and could even bowl 3-4 overs easily.

Suryakumar Yadav: Similar to Pandya, Suryakumar is a wrecker-in-chief. He can change the course of a game in an instant, with SKY having all the tools to dominate any bowling.

Dream11 Prediction Team 1: IND vs BAN

Going with the bowlers first, we have included Rishad Hossain simply because of his excellent recent T20 World Cup 2024, where he took 14 wickets at a strike rate of 10..4 and at an average of 13.9. Washington Sundar also has a decent form, taking 14 wickets this year in T20Is. He can even contribute with the bat. Apart from this, Tohwid Hridoy is the only batter we have chosen from Bangladesh simply because of the 879 runs he has scored at a SR of 140.2 in 33 innings this year. Among pacers, Arshdeep Singh is a certainty, while Tanzim Sakib and Harshit Rana are valuable picks as they are genuine wicket-takers.

Dream11 Prediction Team 2: IND vs BAN

Players to Avoid: IND vs BAN

Litton Das: Although extremely talented, Litton Das is a hit-and-miss player. However, in all T20s this year, Das has managed to hit just 4 half-centuries, which is below par as per his standards.

Riyan Parag: Another highly talented player Riyan Parag is an individual you can avoid. While many Dream11 users will going to keep him in their teams, you can take a punt to drop him as he doesn’t have a good record in T20Is. In fact, in the six T20 internationals, Parag has scored 57 runs at an average of 14.25. The team management has been using him as a finisher but the side already has the likes of Pandya and Rinku Singh.
