Raina-led India, Bangladesh are disappointed

India made just one change to their playing eleven – Amit Mishra made way for Manoj Tiwary.

Bangladesh made just one change to the eleven that last played the Indians – Ziaur Rahman made way for Sohag Gazi.

On winning the toss, Suresh Raina, India’s skipper, chose to bat.

Owing to rain, the match was reduced to a 40-overs-a-side match.
