IND vs BAN 2022: Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chattogram Pitch Report And Weather Conditions

India and Bangladesh will be involved in the final ODI game of the series on Saturday. This game will happen in Chittagong, which is also the venue for the first Test. Here, we look at the pitch report of Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium and the weather conditions in Chattogram for IND vs BAN 2022.

It has been a disappointing series, so far, for the Indians. Both games could have gone India’s way but Bangladesh held their nerves under pressure. As a consolation, India has to win the final game. A whitewash to Bangladesh will be extremely embarrassing for the team.

India will be without the services of Rohit Sharma. The skipper suffered a thumb injury and yet, he almost won the game for India. KL Rahul is likely to lead India in his absence. India might look to make a few changes, including giving the likes of Ishan Kishan a chance to show their skills.
