India just cannot afford more slip ups in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. After their defeat to South Africa, the equation for them is crystal clear. They need to win their remaining two matches, to be able to qualify for the semis. And the road for that starts with the Bangladesh encounter on Wednesday. By the looks of it, it should be an easy encounter for Harmanpreet Kaur‘s team, but then, the idea is to be prepared for the Australia game.
They really need simplify things for themselves, and in loose terms, get to the basics. They are notches better that the Bangladeshi side, and it is not really the match that would worry them a lot.

What to expect from IND vs BAN encounter?
This match is only important for IND in one aspect; they are expected to win, but they need it by a very big margin. In case a situation arises where NRR needs to be taken into account, India needs to be better placed than SA. As for what changes IND need to make; firstly, they need to get Jemimah Rodrigues bat at no. 3 again. She takes time to get going, and at no. 4, when the PP is already done, it is not ideal.
Secondly, Radha Yadav needs to be incorporated into the playing XI, and lastly, the team management needs to find a way to accommodate Arundhati Reddy’s overs in the middle stages. That would ensure better results for the team.
