IND vs BAN: India’s National Cricket Team is set to begin their 2024 home season with an exciting multi-format series against Bangladesh. The series starts with a two-match Test contest, which forms a crucial part of the World Test Championship (WTC) 2023-25 cycle. The first Test, scheduled to begin on September 19 at the iconic MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, will see both teams vying for vital WTC points.
India has a dominant head-to-head record against Bangladesh, having won 11 of their 13 previous Test encounters, with the remaining two ending in draws. However, Bangladesh enters this series on a high, following a historic 2-0 whitewash against Pakistan last month. Their captain, Najmul Hossain Shanto, will be hoping to carry that momentum into the series and challenge India on their home turf.
