Test Series: India Cannot take Bangladesh Lightly!
But the Rohit Sharma-led team was given a warning about the series and the team was asked to not take the team lightly.
By: Tupaki Desk | 31 Aug 2024 9:43 AM GMTThe Indian team is all set to shift its focus to Test cricket for the upcoming series. After a brilliant T20 World Cup India played T20 and ODI series with Sri Lanka. While the young team swept the T20 series, the ODI series came as a rude shock as India lost the series to Sri Lanka after a long time.
India will play a Test series against Bangladesh in September. India is a strong team in every department and there is no need to fear anything. But the Rohit Sharma-led team was given a warning about the series and the team was asked to not take the team lightly.
However former Indian players Suresh Raina and Harbhajan Singh warned the Indian team to be cautious and not take the team lightly. There is a reason behind this. Bangladesh humbled Pakistan at home with a ten-wicket loss. For the first time Bangladesh in Tests.
Suresh Raina said that Bangladesh has the best spin attack and the batsmen are also looking good. The team cannot be taken lightly. The Bangladesh series would be fine practice for the upcoming Australia series.
Harbhajan Singh said that he is eagerly waiting for the series as it is going to be a good series. Saying that the Indian team has all the potential to face the Bangladesh team, the former spinner said that Bangladesh cannot be seen lightly as the team defeated Pak at home.
Bangladesh is a wonder team and no one can predict what the team can do. The 2007 World Cup is an example. In the tournament, the Indian team was knocked out of the tournament by Bangladesh. Despite the presence of heavyweights, Bangladesh defeated India.
Now the team shocked Pakistan by crushing it by ten wickets. So there is a need to be cautious and take the team seriously.
