India take on Bangladesh in a five-match T20I series starting today. All matches will be played at Sylhet International Stadium in Bangladesh. The last time these two sides met, India had won the series 2-1 while the ODIs finished 1-1. Not to forget, there was a massive controversy also erupted after India captain Harmanpreet Kaur slammed the low standards of umpiring by Bangladesh officials. Harman had slammed the stumps to show her anger and later criticised the umpires in her post-match comments and also allegedly mocked the Bangladesh team during the photo session. Bangladesh captain Nigar Sultana had taken her team out of the ground after Harman's repeated gestures which allegedly mocked the Bangladesh team and umpires. Sultana had later said that she expected better manners from the Indian captain.
India will be without the services of Jemimah Rodrigues. Smriti Mandhana's role at the top becomes even more crucial in Rodrigues' absence. Keep an eye on 15-year-old Habib Islam Pinky, who is set to play for Bangladesh in this series.
