India will take on Bangladesh in their next game of the World Cup 2023 on Thursday. The match will be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune.
India currently sit at the top of the points table with three wins in three matches, including a seven-wicket win over Pakistan in their last game. On the other hand, Bangladesh are 7th in the points table with one win and two losses. They lost their last game to New Zealand by 8 wickets.
Bangladesh will look to arrest their downward slip of two games by upsetting the hosts. Meanwhile, the Men in Blue will try to assert their position at the top with another win.
In this post, we will take a look at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium Pitch, Venue Stats, Record, and Average Score ahead of the World Cup clash between India and Bangladesh.
It is a graveyard for the bowlers as the surface is flat and the batters are likely to have a party in the middle. Furthermore, the boundaries are not that big and the outfield is pretty quick. However, there will be some swing with the new ball more so under the lights in the second innings due to the breeze that passes by. One could expect a high-scoring encounter here.
