India and Bangladesh will be involved in the second Test from December 22nd. The game will happen in Dhaka. Here, we look at the pitch report of Shere Bangla National Stadium and the weather conditions in Dhaka for IND vs BAN 2022.
It was a comprehensive win for India at Chittagong. With Rohit Sharma unavailable, India is unlikely to make any changes to the playing XI. India’s bowling attack did well in the first test. The management will hope for a similar show, especially by the likes of Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj.
Cheteshwar Pujara and Shubman Gill were impressive in the first game. However, seniors such as Virat Kohli and KL Rahul must step up. Especially in KL Rahul‘s case, he has to ensure that he is not in danger of losing his place. Therefore, he must score a century to remove all doubts about his position for the moment. Virat, though, looked good in the second innings and will want to get a big one.
