It wasn’t an ideal start for Team India to their World Cup campaign. They came up with quite a mediocre performance against New Zealand. However, they’d be glad that these flaws were exposed in a warm-up match. The ‘Men in Blue’ have another chance to redeem themselves and get a good amount of practice under their belt when they face Bangladesh next.

The Bangla Tigers would’ve been dejected after their practice game against Pakistan was washed out due to rain. Yet, facing another tough opposition like India will pose them a good challenge and it will be good preparation for the tournament. It was against the same opposition because of whom they had to exit the World Cup 2015 in the Quarterfinals stage. Thus, they will be eager to give it back to the Indians and put up a good fight.

Here is the guide to select the Captain and vice-captain for Dream11 Fantasy:

Captain Suggestions:

1. Hardik Pandya

The break after the talk show controversy has done a world of good for Hardik Pandya. He has analysed his game well and is possibly on the top at the moment. The all-rounder has shown his ability with the bat in IPL 2019 and adds up as a valuable bowler. Yet again, India might send him up the batting order just as they did in the last game. He scored 30 runs and picked 1 wicket in the previous match against New Zealand.

2. Soumya Sarkar

In the last three innings that he played, Soumya Sarkar registered half-centuries and is in fine nick. In the tri-series final, he played a great knock where he raced his way to 66 from just 41 balls. The left-hander has been providing his team with good starts and might continue to open in the warm-up game as well. He will be eager to seal his spot in the playing eleven and will be hungry to put up a good show.

3. Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli looked good in the last game in the brief while he was out in the middle. He stood nearly two metres in front of the stumps to negate the swing factor which is a great ploy. With the kind of form that he is in, the Indian skipper will be looking forward to getting some runs under his belt before the first game against South Africa.

Vice-captain suggestions:

1. Tamim Iqbal

Tamim Iqbal is one of the picks you can consider as your vice-captain. Since they have just one practice game left, Bangladesh might not rest him. The opener has been one of the batting mainstays for quite some time now. He registered two half-centuries in his previous four innings but his conversion rate hasn’t been encouraging. Thus, this time around, he might fancy getting to the triple digits.

2. Shakib Al Hasan

Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has been away from the game for a while now. A good outing in the middle is essential for him before heading into the main tournament. In the three matches that he played in the tri-nation series, the all-rounder scored two fifties. Furthermore, he will also get you some wickets which adds up massively to your fantasy points tally.

3. Shikhar Dhawan

In the IPL 2019, Shikhar Dhawan has started off the tournament on a slow note. But he eventually caught up and finished the season on a high. He is the man for the ICC tournaments and has done exceedingly well in all the editions he’s participated thus far. If he can see through the initial phase of his innings, he is sure to get a massive score under his belt.
