The third and final match of the T20 international series between India and Bangladesh in Nagpur.
After India won the second T20I by eight wickets, this clash is a series decider with the Tigers having won the first match in Delhi.
FIRST T20I: Feroz Shah Kotla, Delhi (Sunday, November 3) - Bangladesh won by seven wickets
SECOND T20I: Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot (Thursday, November 7) - India won by eight wickets
THIRD T20I: Vidharba Cricket Association Stadium, Nagpur (Sunday, November 10)
India bounced back from losing the opening T20 to level the series in Rajkot - with their experienced heads coming to the fore.
Rohit Sharma cracked 85 from 43 balls, a knock which included six fours and half a dozen maximums, to turn the task of reaching 154 an easy one. Shreyas Iyer came in to finish off the chase with a quick-fire 24.
The now head into the concluding match of the series as the favourites to clinch it, and deny Bangladesh another bit of history.
Though Khaleel Ahmed was again expensive, Rohit should his leadership qualities in the field as the tourists were restricted to 153 for 6.
That was no thanks to Rishabh Pant, who again endured an uncertain game with the gloves. The nadir of his display came when he thought he had Liton Das out caught, before replays showed he took the ball in front of the stumps.
He nearly repeated the offence later in the innings but his stumping of Soumya Sarkar was deemed to be legal.
India are big favourites to wrap up the series, with Dafabet having them at 1/8 to prevail. Bangladesh meanwhile are 5/1 to pull-off an unlikely success.
Virat Kohli is the headline omission having been rested for the series ahead of the Tests later in the month. Rohit will continue as skipper.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Navdeep Saini, Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah remain out with various fitness concerns but could return when the Tests get underway later in the month.
Shivam Dube is now a staple of the side. Deepak Chahar impressed opening up with the ball in the second T20 but concerns remain over Khaleel, who is vulnerable.

Despite being trounced in Rajkot, Bangladesh will emege from this series with plenty of credit given their less than ideal build-up.
They remain in the hunt to claim their first series win in any format in India, having already created history earlier in the series with their first ever T20 success over the hosts.
Before the tour, their captain Shakib Al Hasan was left in disgrace after being banned by the ICC on anti-corruption charges. Tamim Iqbal and Mohammad Saifuddin also missed out due to personal reasons and injury.
Arafat Sunny still awaits his first T20 outing in three years after a successful run in the Bangladesh Premier League, while the likes of Abu Hider, Aminul Islam, Taijul Islam and Mohammad Mithun are all waiting in the wings after missing out in the second game.
