In the first Test series of the 2024-25 season, India will face Bangladesh. The two-match Test series is scheduled to start on Thursday, 19th September, with the series opener set to take place at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
The Indian team, which is playing a Test match after almost six months, will look to maintain its dominance at home by winning the two-Test series starting from Thursday and also strengthen its top position in the World Test Championship points table. However, the Indian team is facing the Bangladesh team, which defeated Pakistan 2-0 in its own home last month. Indian batsmen will have to improve their performance against spin. Especially star batsman Virat Kohli as his performance against spin has declined since 2021. During this period, his average in 15 tests has been 30. Not only this, captain Rohit Sharma, who was the most successful against spinners, has also been successful against spinners since 2021.
If the Indian team wins this test match, it will be the first time in test history that India will have more wins than losses. India has played 579 tests so far, out of which there have been 178 wins and 178 losses. By hitting seven sixes, Yashasvi Jaiswal will break Brendon McCullum’s record of hitting most sixes in a calendar year. McCullum has a record of 33 sixes in his name.
