India thrashed Bangladesh in the 2019 Day/Night Test at the Eden Gardens. India won both Tests in that series by an innings.

    KL Rahul likely to lead India

    According to reports, KL Rahul is likely to lead India in the Bangladesh Test series. Regular captain Rohit Sharma will miss the series due to a thumb injury. Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant could serve as the vice-captain in place of injured Jasprit Bumrah.
