Bangladesh won the toss and opted to bat first against India in the second One-Day International (ODI) of the three-match series in Dhaka, where a win will seal the second ever ODI series win for the Tigers over India.

Bangladesh made one change in their playing XI, bringing in left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed in place of pacer Hasan Mahmud.

India, who are fighting to stay alive in the series, made two changes.

Spin-bowling all-rounder Axar Patel returned to the XI in place of Shahbaz Ahmed and speedster Umran Malik replaced injured pacer Kuldeep Sen.

Earlier, Bangladesh won the first ODI by one wicket in a nail-biting encounter, where Mehidy Hasan Miraz's heroics with the bat made the difference.
