Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto acknowledged the tough task ahead, stating that “It’s definitely going to be a very challenging series for us.” However, he expressed confidence in his team’s ability to perform well, building on their recent success against Pakistan.

Despite India’s dominant position atop the World Test Championship table, Shanto emphasized that the series outcome hinges on consistent performance over the five-day period. “If we play good cricket for five days, there is a chance which team will be a chance for either team to win in the last session,” he concluded.
