(Reuters) - India's top order batters must kick on and get big scores if the team are to post competitive totals in the Champions Trophy, captain Rohit Sharma said on Wednesday ahead of their tournament opener against Bangladesh.

Having failed to win the one-day international World Cup on home soil in 2023, India are aiming to win a 50-over title for the first time since their last Champions Trophy triumph in 2013. They finished runners-up in the last edition in 2017.
