Match Prediction
With no prior meetings to lean on, India carry the better recent form into this one — but it should be closely contested.
This XI leans 7-4 towards IND, which is a deliberate bet rather than a hedge. Ruturaj Gaikwad takes the armband. If IND are rolled over cheaply, most of your score goes with them. If you want to de-risk it, swap one IND middle-order batter for the equivalent slot on the other side before the toss.
