Top 3 Bangladesh players to watch out for their second Test match against India

As Bangladesh gears up for the second Test against India, all eyes will be on the team’s key players to see if they can turn the tide after a challenging first match. The Bangladeshi side faced significant difficulties, struggling to cope with India’s formidable batting and bowling units. 

With the series at stake, this upcoming match provides an opportunity for the players to showcase their talents and resilience. The team’s performance in this Test could set the tone for future encounters against a seasoned Indian lineup, making it crucial for their key players to rise to the occasion.

Shakib Al Hasan, Bangladesh’s most experienced all-rounder, remains a crucial figure for his team’s success. In the first Test, Shakib contributed with both bat and ball, although not enough to turn the tide for his team. His fighting knock of 32 in the first innings, coupled with four wickets, demonstrated his all-around capabilities. 

In the second innings, he scored 25, but Bangladesh will need more substantial contributions from him to challenge India’s dominance. As a senior player, his leadership and ability to perform under pressure will be key to Bangladesh’s chances in the second Test.

Captain Najmul Hossain Shanto showed glimpses of his potential in the first Test, particularly with a resilient knock of 82 in Bangladesh’s second innings. While his team struggled to cope with India’s formidable bowling attack, Shanto’s composure at the crease was a positive takeaway. 

His captaincy will be under scrutiny as he aims to inspire his team to perform better in the upcoming match. With the pressure of leadership on his shoulders, Shanto will look to convert his starts into big scores and provide the stability Bangladesh needs at the top of the order.

3. Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Mehidy Hasan Miraz has been a standout performer for Bangladesh with the ball, but his batting also adds depth to the lineup. In the first Test, he grabbed two wickets in India’s second innings and played a gritty unbeaten 27 in Bangladesh’s first innings. 

Miraz’s ability to contain runs and take crucial wickets makes him an essential player for Bangladesh. As the team heads into the second Test, his role as an all-rounder will be crucial, especially on spin-friendly pitches where his off-spin can make a significant impact.
