Leading 1-0 in their ongoing three-match series, India take on Bangladesh in the second T20I on Wednesday, in New Delhi. The hosts will be aiming for a series-clinching victory, and will be hoping to beat the Delhi heat.

The hosts were dominant in the first T20I in Gwalior. Their pace battery tore apart Bangladesh's batting order, complemented with stunning spin magic. During the run chase, the openers reduced the deficit by 55 percent within the PowerPlay. Then it was wrapped by Suryakumar Yadav's short cameo and Hardik Pandya's unbeaten power-hitting knock.

The visitors really need a win after losing the Test series. Even a match will do, but they haven't been able to put up a serious challenge yet. In the first T20I, India reached 132/3 in 11.5 overs, in their chase of 128 runs. Hardik remained unbeaten with a knock of 39* runs off 16 balls.
