Bangladesh cricket team has reached India to play a 2 test match series against Team India. The 16 player squad led by captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto reached Chennai directly on Sunday 15 September, where the first test match will start from 19th. As soon as he reached Chennai, Bangladeshi captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto expressed his changed attitude and told that this time his team has come with the sole intention of winning and this is a good opportunity to register the first win. Shanto, who came for this series with increased confidence after defeating Pakistan in the test series, also told the plan to defeat Team India.

Eager for first win over Team India

Bangladesh cricket team entered test cricket against India about 25 years ago. Since then Bangladesh is still waiting for its first test win against Team India. Bangladesh has defeated many teams including Australia, England, New Zealand and now Pakistan but overcoming Team India is still the biggest challenge for it. This time however the team's morale is high because last month for the first time it clean swept Pakistan not only in one test but in the entire series by 2-0. Now the Bangladeshi team believes that this is a good opportunity to win the test match against India for the first time.

Under the captaincy of Shanto, the Bangladeshi team has come to India with the intention of repeating this performance. Now defeating Team India in their own home is the most difficult challenge in Test cricket at the moment, in which every big team has failed, so obviously it is not going to be easy for Bangladesh either. Shanto also knows this but still he is entering the series with a changed attitude. Shanto admitted that this series will be challenging but after the Pakistan series, the team as well as the entire country has got extra confidence. Shanto said that his team wants to win both the Tests but for this they will have to follow their process properly.

… this is how Bangladesh wants to defeat Team India

The Bangladeshi captain also knows that defeating Team India is not as easy as they defeated Pakistan but his team wants to follow a special plan. Shanto also revealed this plan and told how the team can turn the result in their favor. He said that the team's goal is to take the match till the last session of the fifth day because if this happens, the result can come in anyone's favor in the last session. The 26-year-old Bangladeshi captain and his team do not want to think too far ahead but he made it clear that the entire team will enter the field with only the intention of winning in their mind.
