Team India made a few changes to the playing XI against Bangladesh in their last Super 4 match of the Asia Cup 2023 on Friday. They rested Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, Mohammed Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah, and Kuldeep Yadav for the game, with Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Shami, and Prasidh Krishna coming in. India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to bowl first against Bangladesh in the match, giving rise to a funny moment. For a moment after the toss, Rohit forgot about the changes made to the Indian team.

Rohit said, "We are going field first. It is something we haven't done in the tournament; we haven't done it under lights, so it gives us an opportunity to bat under lights. The wicket honestly has everything for everyone. Pacers who bend their backs in the daytime have also got movement, and there has been assistance for the spinners. You've got to be brave and play your natural game. We've got to give game time to some other guys who haven't played."
