India vs Bangladesh live stream — how to watch Cricket World Cup game online

In the 17th match of this world cup, between India and Bangladesh, at the MCA International Stadium in Pune, Bangladesh won the toss and batted and have made 256-8 in their 50 overs, with half centuries from Tanzid Hasan and Liton Das. They are captained by Najmul Hossain Shanto as Shakib Al Hasan did not recover from injury in time. Read on and we'll show you how to watch this enticing match live from anywhere with a VPN, and potentially for FREE.

Hosts India were the favorites coming into this world cup, and their performances so far have fully justified this tag. They look the strongest side at the tournament and have won all their three games by comfortable margins, with captain Rohit Sharma leading the way with 271 runs at a strike rate of 141.83. Jasprit Bumrah has lead their attack magnificently with 8 wickets at 11.62 and an economy rate of 3.44.

Bangladesh on the other hand, after beating Afghanistan in their opening match, have lost by wide margins to England and New Zealand. Their captain has also been leading by example, albeit with the ball. He is Bangladesh’s joint highest wicket-taker, with five scalps, and his economy rate of 4.85 is easily the best of his attack.

India have played Bangladesh four times in world cups. Bangladesh won their first encounter but lost the subsequent three. India are up overall in ODIs to the tune  of 7 to 31 but three of the Bangladesh wins have come in their past meetings, including at the recent Asia Cup.

This day/night match starts at 2pm IST. Here's everything you need to get India vs Bangladesh live streams and watch ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 from anywhere.
