Bangladesh have won the toss and have opted to bat
Mominul Haque: We will bat first. It’s a bit hard and it might break in fourth innings. It’s a great honour to captain Bangladesh.
Virat Kohli: It has a bit of grass on it and historically Indore on day 1 has been bit spicy plus we are playing three seamers. We wanted to bowl first but we also want batsmen to bat in tough conditions. It’s ideal for our seamers who are in top form. I think, from day 2 onwards it will be a beautiful track to bat on. Nadeem is not a part of this eleven and Ishant replaces him purely on the basis of the pitch.
