In the first test match played in Chennai, Team India defeated Bangladesh by 280 runs. In this match, all the players from Team India performed very well and played an important role in their team’s victory. Bangladesh players failed to show a great performance against the hosts.

After the end of the first Test, former player Sanjay Manjrekar praised Rohit Sharma and company. He said that spinners get a lot of help here but Team India played aggressively and won the match.

Former player Sanjay Manjrekar told ESPNcricinfo, ‘India is winning against strong teams at home. It was not so easy to defeat Bangladesh because they had many excellent spinners. However, despite this, India won.

Turning pitch has been the strong point of Team India. This is the reason why it wins at home. However, the coach and captain will also be very happy with the performance of the team. They have batsmen and the fielders also played their role very well. Along with the spinners, the performance of the fast bowlers was also excellent.
