IND vs BAN: Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, is currently busy playing the T20 World Cup 2024. India has won 3 matches in the group stage and the first match of Super 8. Now the next match is against Bangladesh on 22 June. Now in the meantime, there is a lot of discussion about what will be the squad of Team India against Bangladesh.

If you are thinking that we are talking about tomorrow's match, then it is not so at all. Actually we are talking about the Test series to be played between India and Bangladesh (IND vs BAN), which will be played in September. In such a situation, let us understand which players can get a chance in this series.

KL Rahul and Shami will return!

Team India's wicketkeeper-batsman KL Rahul and Mohammed Shami may return to the Test series to be played between India and Bangladesh (IND vs BAN). Both these players are out of Team India. Shami got injured during the World Cup 2023 last year. After this he underwent surgery. It is expected that Shami will be fit for the Bangladesh Test series. Despite being injured, Shami played 7 matches and topped the list with 24 wickets. In such a situation, the return of this player becomes very important in terms of WTC Final 25.

At the same time, KL Rahul is also not having a good time. He was also injured during the England Test series. Due to the injury, Rahul could not play all the matches. He scored only 108 runs in two innings of 1 match. At the same time, IPL 2024 also did not go well for him and he was also dropped from the T20 World Cup 2024. This season he scored 520 runs in 14 matches at an average of 37.14. However, Rahul is experienced, so it becomes important to include him in this regard.

Gill will play as an opener!

In the Test series between India and Bangladesh (IND vs BAN), captain Rohit Sharma may give Shubman Gill a chance as an opener because ever since Gill started batting at number three, his performance has declined.

While batting at number 3, he has played 10 matches so far, in which only 2 centuries have come from his bat. He has scored only 618 runs so far.

At the same time, Jaiswal's performance was not very good in IPL 2024 and this is the reason why captain Rohit is not giving him a chance in the playing 11 of the World Cup. Jaiswal scored only 435 runs in 15 matches in IPL 2024. In such a situation, he may be given rest from this series.

Will they also get a chance?

Apart from Shami, Rahul and Gill, 12 more veterans can get a chance in the Test series between India and Bangladesh (IND vs BAN). This can include Rohit Sharma, Kohli, Sarfaraz, Jadeja, Ishan and Rituraj. Arshdeep Singh may get a chance to debut. Let us tell you that the first match of the series will be played in Chennai on 19 September while the second match will be played in Kanpur on 27 September.

India's probable team for Bangladesh Test series

Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Sarfaraz Khan, Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohammad Shami, Ishan Kishan, Rituraj Gaikwad, Arshdeep Singh
