“Ashwin should be One of Candidates For India’s Test Captaincy…” – Danish Kaneria reveals the big name who can lead India in Test cricket

Team India found themselves in a tricky situation during the run-chase of 144 against the Bangladesh cricket team in the second Test match in Dhaka recently. The visitors got off to a shaky start to the game as they lost nearly half of their wickets at the end of Day 3 as they ended with 44 for the loss of four wickets.

Team India started the subsequent day with fresh hope but the Bangladeshi bowlers marched on with confidence by taking three more wickets, leaving India in a spot of bother.

However, Ravichandran Ashwin and Shreyas Iyer helped the team to come out on top much to Bangladesh’s annoyance as the Tigers are still looking for their first win over India in Test cricket.
