India Hosts Bangladesh in Test Series

India is set to face Bangladesh in a two-match Test series beginning September 19, focusing on improving their batting against spin, an area where they have struggled recently. Key Indian players, including Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, have shown vulnerabilities against spin bowling, which could pose challenges against Bangladesh's formidable spin attack led by Shakib Al Hasan. Bangladesh is entering the series with confidence after a 2-0 victory over Pakistan and captain Najmul Hossain Shanto believes their spin attack can compete closely with India's. The selection for India's final XI remains uncertain, with debates on including a third seamer versus a third spinner. The series is crucial for India as they aim to secure a place in the World Test Championship final, while Bangladesh seeks to make an impact on Indian soil. Both teams are gearing up for a challenging contest at the historic MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
