IND vs BAN: So many tests have been played between India and Bangladesh so far, when was the first match

India vs Bangladesh Test: The Test series between India and Bangladesh is about to begin. The first match of the two-Test series will be played on the Chennai ground from 19th September i.e. Thursday. Both teams are currently in Chennai and are busy with their preparations. Meanwhile, while the Indian team will play Test cricket after a long time, the Bangladesh team has recently come here after defeating Pakistan in two consecutive matches at its home. But there does not seem to be any tension for Team India at the moment. That is because the Bangladesh team has never been able to challenge Team India. The history of about 24 years tells this. 

So far 13 Tests have been played between India and Bangladesh.

A total of 13 Test matches have been played between India and Bangladesh so far. India has won 11 of these and two matches have ended in a draw. The two Tests that were drawn were played in Bangladesh. Whenever these two teams have come face to face in India, the Bangladesh team has never been able to draw the match, let alone win. This shows how dominant Team India is against Bangladesh. The first Test match between India and Bangladesh was played in the year 2000. This was Bangladesh’s first Test match. That is, the team made its debut in Tests for the first time. Since then, a Test series has been held between the two teams every few years. 

Bangladesh is also in high spirits. 

This time Bangladesh team is coming after defeating Pakistan in two consecutive Tests at their home. This has happened for the first time. Therefore, the team’s morale will be high. But Team India’s captain Rohit Sharma knows how to control a team like Bangladesh. The special thing is that almost all the big players of the Indian team are a part of this series, that is, no one has been given rest. Therefore, India’s best team is preparing to enter the field. 

The series is being played under the World Test Championship. 

The match will be played under the World Test Championship. The Indian team is already at the number one position in the points table here. India will have to win the next match to take a bigger lead from Australia. Also, after winning two matches, Team India will be seen taking another step towards the WTC final. Although Bangladesh’s performance has improved in recent times, it is still not enough to compete with Team India. Meanwhile, everyone’s eyes are now on the match to be held on September 19, when the players of the Indian team will take the field.
