Led by Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Bangladesh is coming into this showpiece event after losing to West Indies by 0-3 in the three-match ODI series away from home in December 2024. They would be aiming to reverse their fortunes and start the mega event on a successful note.
On the other hand, Rohit Sharma-led India last played an ODI series against England in February 2025, winning the three-match series by 3-0 quite comfortably. They would be hoping to keep up the same winning momentum.

BAN vs IND, Champions Trophy, Match 2 Pitch Report
The Dubai surface is expected to assist batters right from the start of the game. However, with long boundaries on offer, we can anticipate spinners and slow bowlers to excel on this wicket. Any score above 280 would be a bit tough for the chasing side to win.

BAN vs IND, Champions Trophy, Match 2 Winner Prediction
Match Winner: India
India and Bangladesh have played against each other on 41 instances in ODIs so far. While India bagged a whopping 32 wins, Bangladesh could secure only eight victories with one contest ending in no-result.
That said, Bangladesh won three of the last five matches between these two sides in the 50-over format. Nevertheless, India is one of the strongest sides moving into this eight-team showpiece event. We can expect them to come out on top with a pretty comfortable margin.
