Ind vs Ban | India would do well to not relax against Bangladesh

Post India’s fabulous victory over Pakistan, after the massive hype that the match had generated, there will be a tendency among fans to think the matches against the other sub-continent teams could well be easy. It would do well to remember that last year, Bangladesh won the ODI series against India.

Their white-ball teams are far more competitive than the red-ball ones and given a semblance of a chance can make life difficult for the opposition.

India could well be feeling like a batter who relaxes his guard just a little bit after he has completed a century. That little relaxing makes him lose his wicket. That said, the fact that Shubman Gill, Kohli, Rahul and Shreyas haven’t got a century so far will certainly make them hungry. Hardik spent a short time in the middle against Australia while Jadeja hasn’t had a hit so far and there will be lots of hunger there.
