In fact, noway ahead have lower than 225 runs been scored in an ODI match. In 2017, India had achieved the target of 351 runs against England on the same ground. 2021 There were three ODI matches between India and England and further than 300 runs were scored 5 times. It’s clear from this that the pitch of Pune will be ideal for batting. also nothing special is going to be for the bowlers.
Strength of Bangladesh:
Bangladesh’s strength is their spin bowling. That means, if the pitch is slow and there is turn, the Bangladeshi batting becomes lethal.
