IND vs BAN, World Cup 2023: India's ODI record at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune
India will be playing their eighth ODI game at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune when they take on Bangladesh on Thursday, October 19. This will be the first ODI meeting between the two sides at the venue.
After registering a historic eighth win over Pakistan in the history of the ODI World Cup, the Indian cricket team will now look to defeat Bangladesh and win four games on the bounce in the ongoing marquee tournament.
India are riding the crest of a winning wave and it seems that they don't have any major concerns at the moment. After defeating Australia in their campaign opener by six wickets, the Men in Blue hammered Afghanistan by eight wickets and kept their winning streak against arch-rivals Pakistan in the men's ODI World Cup intact after emerging victorious at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad by seven wickets.
The Rohit Sharma-led side will lock horns with the Bangla Tigers at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. India's ODI record at the venue can trigger mixed emotions from the fans as it has not been a very happy hunting ground for them.

On the other hand, Bangladesh have got off to an underwhelming start to their World Cup campaign with just a solitary win coming their way after three fixtures. Their only win came in their campaign opener against Afghanistan but they went on to lose their second and third fixture to the defending champions England and to New Zealand respectively.
Their skipper Shakib Al Hasan is down with a quad injury and they will hope that he regains his fitness ahead of the clash against India.
