The countdown for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 has begun and the champions of the inaugural edition of the Men's T20 World Cup, India are all geared up to test themselves against Bangladesh in a warm-up fixture in the lead-up to the marquee tournament.
The encounter against Bangladesh will be India's only chance to find their ideal playing combination ahead of the tournament and therefore the fans can expect the India players to give their best at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York on June 1.
India have not played a T20I since their three-match series against Afghanistan in January, however, the 17th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) proved to be a good opportunity for the India players to test themselves against each other and the best in the world in the lead-up to the World Cup.
Therefore, the India players are certainly not rusty but are they prepared to hit the ground running?
On the other hand, Bangladesh are coming into the warm-up game on the back of a forgettable bilateral series against the USA. The Bangla Tigers lost the three-match T20I series 2-1 to USA and are desperate for a win ahead of their first World Cup game against Sri Lanka on June 7 at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas.
