Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium stats India: Chattogram India Test match all result list

Team India is set to play only its sixth Test match this year, with the first match of the two-Tests series against Bangladesh beginning tomorrow, at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram.

Notably, this will be India’s first Test match since taking on England in the one-off Test match in July, as they hope to brush aside the series of disappointing results of-late in the White Ball matches.

They however, will yet again begin a series with a host of last-minute changes to the initially picked squad due to some injury-marred players, set to miss at least one of the two matches.

While skipper Rohit Sharma will miss the first Test due to a thumb injury he had picked during the second ODI against Bangladesh, the likes of Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami will miss the entire series due to their failure to recover from the knee and shoulder injuries respectively.

With Jasprit Bumrah yet not fit and available due to his persistent back problem, the pace attack will be relatively young on experience, and will likely be led by Mohammad Siraj and Umesh Yadav, with Jaydev Unadkat roped in as Shami’s replacement in almost the eleventh hour.
