Ajay Ratra will be seen playing an important role
Talking about the Indian team, they recently played a three-match T20 and three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka. The team’s performance was very poor in the three-match ODI series and they had to face a 2-0 defeat against Sri Lanka.
However, now India has to play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh and apart from this, a T20 series will also be played between these two teams. It is very important for the Indian men’s selection committee to take many important decisions for the upcoming series.
