Bangladesh’s journey in Test cricket
Bangladesh pulled off a remarkable clean sweep against Pakistan in Rawalpindi, sparking interest in how they’ll fare against cricket giants India. This victory has created buzz and a sense of optimism for Bangladesh’s potential to compete on bigger stages.
Bangladesh has struggled in away Tests, particularly against the men in blue. In their prior three away Tests, Bangladesh faced massive defeats, highlighting the difficulty they’ve had competing against stronger sides in overseas conditions. This backdrop makes the upcoming Test series a critical opportunity for Bangladesh to show their growth.
Bangladesh will be hoping for a repeat performance in Chennai as they lead the fast-bowling attack. With reverse swing likely to be in play on the drying pitch, their skillset will be crucial.
What are the odds for India vs Bangladesh?
India is favoured to win the Test match due to their impressive record on home soil. Bangladesh has never won a Test match against India. They made their Test debut against India in November 2000 but have yet to claim a victory in the red-ball format.
