India vs Bangladesh World Cup 2023: The stands seem to echo with fervent cheers for Rohit Sharma. One fan held a placard that boldly declared, “Rohit Sharma ke over speeding mein koi challan nahi,” expressing a desire to see the Indian skipper demolish the Bangladeshi bowlers. Another poster creatively stated, “Rohit bhai jaisa koi pull maar sakta hai kya?” in a playful reference to the popular viral meme “Elvish Bhai ke saamne koi kuchh bol sakta hai?”
In the match, Bangladesh won the toss and chose to bat first. The teams lined up as follows:
Bangladesh (Playing XI): Litton Das, Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto(c), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Towhid Hridoy, Mushfiqur Rahim(w), Mahmudullah, Nasum Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud, Mustafizur Rahman, Shoriful Islam
India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(w), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj
Rohit Sharma, the Indian captain, shared his perspective, stating, “I would have bowled first. It’s working at this point of time, don’t see any reason to change it. That’s important in this WC, keeping everybody in good space. The boys are in good shape, good mental space as well and enjoying the cricket. So far so good, we want to continue this momentum. Same team.”
