India vs Bangladesh: A Clash Between Two Giants – Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah

Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah are widely regarded as two of the best in the world at what they do – Kohli, one of the finest batters, and Bumrah, an exceptional fast bowler. Watching these two world-class athletes compete against each other is always a thrilling spectacle. Recently, during a practice session on Monday ahead of India's first Test match against Bangladesh at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, Bumrah bowled to Kohli in the nets. According to reports circulating on social media, Bumrah managed to dismiss Kohli twice during the session. If true, this is no small achievement, given Kohli’s stature as one of cricket's all-time greats. To bowl out a player of his caliber twice in one session is impressive and raises anticipation about how pace bowlers might perform at Chepauk, a ground traditionally known to favor spinners.

Kohli's form will be pivotal for India as they prepare for five home Tests before embarking on their tour of Australia for the highly anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy. His performance could set the tone for the upcoming matches, especially as India gears up to secure a spot in the World Test Championship Final.

What’s Next for Team India?

Team India is all set to begin their red-ball campaign as they work toward making their case for the World Test Championship Final. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has already announced the squad for the first Test against Bangladesh, which will take place at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The match is scheduled to start on September 19, 2024, at 9:30 AM IST. Following the two-Test series against Bangladesh, India will host New Zealand for a three-match Test series, before traveling to Australia later in the year for the much-anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

India’s squad for the first Test includes Rohit Sharma (Captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Sarfaraz Khan, Rishabh Pant (Wicketkeeper), Dhruv Jurel (Wicketkeeper), R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep, Jasprit Bumrah, and Yash Dayal.
