The Bengal tigers were outplayed in the first test of the two-game series after winning the ODI series. They were good with the ball in the first innings but were subpar with the bat getting all out at 150 runs. They improved in the second innings with a stand of 124 runs for the first wicket but all was in vain when they lost the game by 188 runs. This shows that Bangladesh has a long way to go in the longest format of the game. They can however prove their worth and create an upset by winning against India in the second test.
Bangladesh Lineup
Zakir Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Litton Das, Shakib Al Hasan (c), Mushfiqur Rahim, Yasir Ali, Nurul Hasan (wk), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taijul Islam, Khaled Ahmed, Taskin Ahmed
India form
After a disappointing performance in the ODI series, India was phenomenal with both bat and ball to win the first game of the series. Kuldeep and Siraj were the picks of the bowlers with five and four wickets respectively for the men in blue. Gill and Pujara scored centuries in the second innings propelling India to a huge total. Virat Kohli will be disappointed with his 1 and 19* in two innings. India will be looking for overall the same or better performance from their players to clinch the series.
India Predicted Lineup
Shubman Gill, KL Rahul (c), Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (wk), Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Siraj
Expert betting tips
The pitch will dry out as the days progress. India is again going into the game as favourites. We can expect some huge totals in the game as well. Historically India has done well in the test against Bangladesh. They have won 10 out of 12 games played and 2 have been a draw. We are expecting Pujara again to be the pick of the batters as he is in exceptional form at the moment.
