IND vs BAN: “Going With India To Win” – Aakash Chopra Makes Big Predictions For India vs Bangladesh 2nd ODI In Mirpur

Former India National Cricket Team opening batsman Aakash Chopra has made some big predictions for the second ODI of the three-match series between Rohit Sharma-led India National Cricket Team and Litton Das-led Bangladesh National Cricket Team, which is set to be played at Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Wednesday, December 7.

In the first ODI at Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Sunday, December 4, Bangladesh all-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz played a blinder to help his side pull off a memorable 1-wicket win over India in a thrilling low-scoring game.

Speaking on his official YouTube channel on Tuesday, December 6, Aakash Chopra predicted the Men In Blue to gain a victory in the second ODI, saying that they will not be able to digest a second consecutive defeat. He said:

“I am going with India to win, fingers crossed, toes crossed because we don’t want the last match to be a dead rubber. If we fall behind Bangladesh 2-0 and the series is over in the second match, we will not be able to digest that.”

The 45-year-old cricketer-turned-commentator also predicted Virat Kohli and KL Rahul to be among the runs in the second ODI. He stated:

“Kohli and Rahul will together score more than 50 runs. I am not saying that Kohli will do that alone although he is in good form and might do that. But these are tough batting conditions – so one good ball, one bad shot, one wrong decision or a good catch – those things do happen.”

Axar, Sundar and Siraj will together pick up six or more wickets – Aakash Chopra

Aakash Chopra further predicted that the first game’s star performers – Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz – will together bag three or more wickets in the second ODI. He said:

“I feel Shakib and Mehidy will together pick up three or more wickets, they might take four as well. If the pitch is a used surface, it will become even slower. Even if it is new, not many runs are scored in Shere Bangla, it is generally a 240 to 250-run match, and there is help for the spinners.”

Chopra is expecting Axar Patel to be part of India’s playing XI in the second ODI after missing the first game due to a bruised rib. Also, he is expecting Axar Patel, Washington Sundar and Mohammed Siraj to pick up six or more wickets. He said:

“Axar, Sundar and Siraj will together pick up six or more wickets, that’s what I am thinking. Siraj – he is flying under the radar but he is consistently performing well. Sundar should bowl his 10 overs. Axar – if he also bowls his 10 overs, you know the form he had sometime back on these pitches. He has been brilliant.”
