It is very rare that the Indian cricket team gets a break for more than a month. But after winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, India had two short tours of Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka. The last match for Team India was on July 7, and now, after a gap of 41 days, The Men in Blue are back in action on September 19. India are all set to host Bangladesh for two Tests and three T20Is. The test series is part of the World Test Championship 2023-25.
So, it will be very important for both teams. India have not lost a home Test series since 2012. Since then, India have played 17 Test series and never lost a single one. On the other hand, Bangladesh are coming off a historic 2-0 clean sweep over Pakistan, so they will also be high on confidence. The test series will take place between September 19 and October 1. It will be followed by three T20Is between October 6 and October 12.
The two tests will take place in Chennai and Kanpur. Meanwhile, Gwalior, Delhi, and Hyderabad will host three T20Is. IND vs BAN played the last test match in December 2022, which India won by three wickets. This article will include the predicted squads, schedule, records, head-to-head stats, and other details about the upcoming Bangladesh’s tour of India.
