What Shanto said about the 'challenge' of the India series?
Chandika Hathurusinghe was the subject of various rumors during and after the Pakistan series. He was on leave from that trip. He went to see his family. He was not in the national team camp for the series. So many questions arose. However, the head coach of the Tigers set foot in Dhaka the night before Bangladesh flew to India. He flew to Chennai with the national team on Sunday.
Bangladesh will play two Tests and three T20Is in India. Expectations were high after As they whitewashed Pakistan 2-0. India has given their strongest squad for them. All in all, another challenge awaits the Tigers where the Test Championship points equation is also a fact where India is on top.
However, before leaving the country, Zakir-Sadman-Naeem were seen in a very cheerful mood. This is what is needed before such a series. The success brought from Pakistan has not yet reached him. Before leaving, Shanto also reminded about the challenge. He informed that if Pakistan can use the inspiration of the series and play as a team, it is possible to get success here as well.
"It's going to be a challenging series. After a good series in Pakistan, the team has added confidence. We will play to win both matches. Our aim will be whether we can do the work properly or not. Good results are possible if we do our job right, but challenging. The difference will be possible only when we play as a team. I will play good cricket only if I can play as a team. Everyone will play to win the match.
Team India is leading the Test Championship table with 74 points from nine matches. Team Tigers are fourth with 33 points in six matches.
