Shakib took five wickets, and Ebadot took four, restricting India, who were sent to bat first, being bowled out for 186 runs in 41.2 overs. India reached the total thanks to KL Rahul’s 73 off 70 balls, which featured five 4s and four maximums. India hopes to rebound in the second ODI after losing the first one, while Bangladesh would like to win the three-match ODI series at home against India. Let’s look at some of the major match-ups before the second game.

Virat Kohli vs Shakib Al Hasan

The erstwhile captain of India has a poor history against the former captain of Bangladesh. In 125 balls, Shakib has dismissed Kohli four times in ODIs, and Kohli averages just 29.5 against him.

Shardul Thakur vs Mushfiqur Rahim

The Bangladeshi wicket-keeper batter struggled to find a rhythm against Thakur. In 22 balls from Thakur, he managed only 4 runs and struggled to even rotate the strike. When the former Bangladesh captain comes out to bat, it will not be surprising if Thakur is thrown straight into the attack.
