India vs Bangladesh 2nd ODI.Beating India in successive ODIs at home would be a significant achievement for Bangladesh, who would take an unassailable lead if they win the second ODI on Wednesday.
The one-wicket win in the first ODI was well worth watching, and the 51-run stand on the tenth wicket between Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Mustafizur Rahman showed how dangerous Bangladesh are at home.
India will try to make a comeback in the second ODI in Dhaka after losing the first match of the three-match ODI series. Rohit Sharma and his men will look at the batting options available to him.
India's players to watch
1. KL Rahul - he scored 73 off 70 balls and is the pick of the batters for India.
2. Mohammed Siraj - He was a bright spot in India's inexperienced bowling attack on Sunday, bowling at a lively pace and getting some movement out to take three wickets.
Bangladesh's players to watch
1. Litton Das - He showed fantastic form in the last T20I of the T20 World Cup against India. He smashed 41 runs in the first ODI and is the best batsman for Bangladesh.
2. Shakib Al Hasan - Bangladesh's standout all-rounder has returned to the ODI squad with a brilliant performance in the series opener. He took five wickets and effectively removed Sharma and Virat Kohli in his first over of the spell.
Match Prediction
India are predicted to win the match as India lead 30-6 (Out of 37 games played) in Head to Head.

Pitch Report
As seen in the last match, the bowlers should get ample help from the surface. While the pacers accounted for more than 50 per cent of the wickets in the first ODI, spin is likely to play a significant role in the rest of the match. Ten wickets have fallen in the powerplay phase in the last four games, suggesting some help with the new ball. Batting first would be the preferred option, as the team that batted first has won three of the previous four games.
Team Squad
India: Rohit Sharma(C), Shikar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(WK), Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Umran Malik, and Mohammed Siraj.
