The 2 test series between India and Bangladesh is starting from 14 December. Both matches are very important for India according to the World Test Championship (WTC). After the 2-1 loss in the ODI series, Team India will adopt an attacking approach and would like to take revenge on Bangladesh by winning the Test series.
India can also move to the second spot in the WTC points table if they win the series 2-0. At the same time, Bangladesh will have to avoid players like Rishabh Pant and Ravichandran Ashwin of India. Further in the news, we will tell you the strategy of Team India for the first test and the possible playing 11 of both teams. Will also tell how India can get closer to entering the WTC final if it wins the Test series.
India has the upper hand
So far 11 Tests have been played between the two countries. 9 India won and 2 matches were drawn. Bangladesh's team could not win a single test against India. India has defeated them by an innings margin 5 out of 9 times. 2 times by more than 9 wickets and 2 times by a margin of more than 100 runs. India has also played 8 Tests in Bangladesh, out of which 6 were won and 2 were drawn.
Team India has a strong batting order
After the 2-1 loss in the ODI series, Team India will adopt an aggressive approach in the Test series. The team will not give any chance to Bangladesh to dominate. The team has a strong batting line-up in the form of Rahul, Gill, Kohli, Pujara, Iyer, and Pant. There are also 2 top-class spinners in the form of Ashwin and Akshar. Who can also bat in the lower order?
In bowling, India has a third spinner in the form of Kuldeep Yadav. Also, the best pacers are available in the form of Umesh Yadav and Mohammad Siraj. Both can consistently trouble Bangladeshi batsmen by bowling at a speed of more than 140 kmph.
Rahul will captain for the second time
Rohit Sharma has been ruled out of the first test in the ODI series due to injury. KL Rahul will take charge of the team in his place. Rahul captained Team India in the Test for the first time on the tour of South Africa in January this year. South Africa won this match by 7 wickets.
Rahul would like to improve his record as Test captain by winning both matches of the series. Apart from Tests, Rahul has also captained 7 ODIs. In these, India won 4 and lost 3. He also captained Team India in a T20, in which India won.
Pant in peak form of Test
24-year-old wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant is batting best for India in Tests. He has scored 720 runs in 10 matches of this World Test Championship. During this, 2 centuries and 4 fifties have also come out of his bat. Apart from him, KL Rahul has scored 541 runs in 7 matches. Two centuries have also come from his bat.
Ashwin is the master of Asian pitches
Ravichandran Ashwin has taken 355 wickets in 58 Tests in Asia. He is only behind India's Anil Kumble and Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan. He has also taken 29 wickets in 7 matches of this World Test Championship. In such a situation, it will be very difficult for Bangladesh to overcome India in the Tests.
