The Indian team is preparing hard for the Test series against Bangladesh starting on 19th September. Team India's practice camp is set up in Chennai where every player is sweating under the leadership of coach Gautam Gambhir. Now big news has come out before the Test against Bangladesh in Chennai. Reports are that Team India will not give a chance to a big player in the first Test. We are talking about Akshar Patel who is unlikely to get a chance in the playing eleven of the first Test. According to the PTI report, Akshar Patel is not fitting in the playing eleven in the strategy of Gautam Gambhir and Rohit Sharma.

According to the PTI report, Team India will play the Chennai Test with three spinners, in which Ashwin and Jadeja are certain to play. Kuldeep Yadav's name is said to be certain in the race for the third spinner. If Kuldeep plays, then Akshar Patel is certain to sit on the bench. However, it will not be an easy decision to leave Akshar Patel out because this player is in amazing form at this time. Akshar recently played for India D in the Duleep Trophy match where he scored 86 and 28 runs against India C. If Akshar is in the playing eleven, he also gives depth to the batting and his record in Test cricket is also amazing. He has scored 646 runs in 14 Tests at an average of more than 35 and in bowling, he has 55 wickets at an average of just 19.34.

Kuldeep Yadav is also a big wicket-taker. This player has taken 53 wickets in 12 Tests. Apart from this, he has also worked a lot on his batting in the last few matches. Now it remains to be seen how true this report proves to be. Talking about other players, Bumrah and Siraj will be in the playing eleven and Pant will get a chance as a wicketkeeper.
