Since the side batting second has won five of the last seven one-day internationals here, the toss-winning team will not be too hesitant in electing to bowl first.

Bangladesh Team News & Playing 11
Team News
None of the Bangladeshi players were reported to be injured at the time 𒁃of writing and the selectors are unlikely to make any changes to the side for this upcoming fixture.
Key Players
Tamim Iqbal has been the star performer with the bat for Bangladesh. The opener has scored the most runs for his side this Champions Trophy and he will be expected to give the team a blazing start. Shakib Al Hasan and Mahmudullah both struck twin centuries in the last match against New Zealand and they will be the key batsmen down the order. Mustafizur Rahman will be the bowler to watch out for. Though he hasn't been that impressive so far, his ability to outfox batsmen with his off-cutters makes him a big threat.
Recent Form
Bangladesh have done extremely well to come back from the dead and qualify for the semi-finals. After suffering a꧂ heavy defeat at the hands of the hosts in their first game and picking up some hope from their washed out Australia game, the tigers pipped the Kiwis in a do-or-die battle to finish second in their group with three points.

India Team News & Playing 11
Team News
The Indian team seems to be free from injury concerns with all their players in good physical condition. After a 🐎solid performance against South Africa in the last game, the management may not want to tinker with the winning combination.
Key Players
Shikhar Dhawan is having another superb edition of the Champions Trophy having hit one hundred and a couple of fifties in three games. He is leading the runs charts and will be India's biggest hope with the bat. Virat Kohli played a valuable knock in the last match and scored an unbeaten 81 against Pakistan at this ground. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah have had a good tournament so far and though they may not have taken too many wickets, they have been successful in keeping the batsmen tied up.
Recent Form
India have topped their group with two wins and one loss from their three matches. They blew away Pakistan in their opening fixture but were left stunned by Sri Lanka in their next one b𝓰efore securing a crushing victory over South Africa in a must-win contest.

Bangladesh vs India Betting Odds
India have beaten Bangladesh five times in their previous seven attempts in the 50-overs format. They played their opening game against Pakistan at the Edgbaston and emerged victorious by a handsome margin. They are overwhelming favorites to win this match at 1.26 with betfair and 1.20 with bet365. Banꦓgladesh have a dismal overall record against India and they have never won an ODI at this ground. They are therefore distant outs♐iders at 4.7 with Betfair and 4.50 with Bet365.
Bangladesh vs India Prediction
Though India have beaten Bangladesh in every other ODI, they cannot afford to be complacent against a side that is known for causing upsets, especially in major ICC tournaments. Their recent win over New Zealand shows that they cannot be taken lightly when it comes to white ball cricket. The last two encounters between these two nations in ICC tournaments have been close contests and India will still need to play their best game to beat Bangladesh. India know that they cannot let their guard down and so they will come fully prepared. We thus predict Indiaꦏ to win this match and make their way to the finals.
Final Verdict: Back India to beat Bangladesh in the 2nd semi-final of ICC Champions Trophy 2017 at 1.26 with betfair and 1.20 with bet365.
