Indian Cricket Team Arrives in Hyderabad for Series Finale Against Bangladesh
The Indian cricket team, led by Suryakumar Yadav, arrived in Hyderabad on Friday for the third and final T20I match against Bangladesh. The series is already in India’s grasp after convincing victories in the first two matches.
In the series opener in Gwalior, India chased down Bangladesh’s total of 153 with ease, winning by 7 wickets. The second T20I in Delhi was even more dominant, with India posting a massive 217/5 and restricting Bangladesh to just 131/7, securing an 86-run victory.
Nitish Reddy, who hails from Visakhapatnam, expressed his excitement about playing in his home town of Hyderabad. “I’m really looking forward to playing in front of my home crowd,” said Reddy, who scored a blistering 34-ball 74 in the second T20I.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, are yet to register a win on this tour. They lost both Test matches that preceded the T20I series.
