After salvaging a win in the 3rd ODI against Bangladesh and avoiding a whitewash in the ODI series, Team India are all set to lock horns with the Bangla Tigers for a 2-match Test series. It will be an entertaining affair, although the Indian team will certainly fancy their chances against Shakib Al Hasan's men.
The hosts have been in immaculate form at home, and they will rely on their spin attack to trouble the Indian batsmen.
KL Rahul will be leading the Indian team in the absence of Rohit Sharma, who injured his thumb during the 2nd Test. In his pre-match press conference, Rahul stated that his side will try to play aggressive attacking cricket, and with India's qualification for World Test Championship 2021-23 final at stake, they need to win both the Test matches against Bangladesh.
