IND vs BAN T20 World Cup 2024 weather report: India are all set to face Bangladesh in their second match of the Super 8 stage of the T20 World Cup 2024 in North Sound, Antigua on Saturday, June 22. The Men in Blue are one of the few unbeaten teams in the tournament and look to continue their dominant run.
The Bangla Tigers suffered a loss to Australia in their rain-curtailed Super 8 opener in Antigua on June 20 (local time) and have less than 48 hours before their second game at the same venue. The clash was cut short by rain after the first innings and then in the second innings. Will it be wet again in the India vs Bangladesh clash?

If the game gets washed out, India will get a point and will move to the top but the clash against Australia will become a crucial one if Afghanistan somehow manages to win both of their remaining games - one against Australia and the other against Bangladesh.
