India clocks 12 pc rise in deal volume in Jan-Oct, China sees 23 pc decline
India saw 11.9 per cent increase in deal volume (year-on-year) in the January-October period, bucking the overall trend in the Asia-Pacific region, a new report has said.
India made as many as five changes by resting the likes of Virat Kohli and pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah among others for the inconsequential Asia Cup Super Four match against Bangladesh at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Friday.
Besides Kohli and Bumrah, all-rounder Hardik Pandy, Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj have been rested, making way for Suryakumar Yadav, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Shami and Shardul Thakur as India elected to bowl first. Batting all-rounder Tilak Verma was earlier handed his India cap by skipper Rohit Sharma, and the youngster is set to make his ODI debut against Bangladesh.
Bangladesh, who are already out of the tournament, also handed a debut to Tanzim Hasan Sakib.
