Former Indian cricket legend Sourav Ganguly expects India to comfortably win the two-match Test series against Bangladesh starting September 19. However, he warned the Rohit Sharma-led side not to take Bangladesh lightly as they will be full of confidence after their historic series win against Pakistan earlier this month.
In the coming days, Ganguly is eager to see how India performs in the five-match series against Australia starting on November 22. India has managed to win its last two series against Australia and will now be eyeing a hat-trick of wins. The 52-year-old said that the Australia series will be the real test and also said that the England series in 2025 will also be important. He said that fast bowlers will play an important role in both the series.
I am waiting for his tour to Australia- Sourav Ganguly
“I don’t see Bangladesh winning; India will win the series. But India should expect good and tough cricket from Bangladesh because they are coming into the series with a lot of confidence after beating Pakistan in Pakistan,” Ganguly told reporters in Kolkata.
The former legendary cricketer further added, “I am looking forward to their tour of Australia; for me it will be the real test for the team. Then, when they tour England in July, these are the two most important tours, honestly. I think the fast bowling department will be stronger once Bumrah and Siraj and Shami are back.”
Akash Deep was included in the Indian squad for the England series where he played just one match in Ranchi and took three wickets. Recently, in the Duleep Trophy, he took five wickets against India B and after this performance, he has been included in the squad for the Bangladesh series. Speaking about the same, Ganguly praised the Bengal pacer and said that he will be as fast as Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami in the near future.
