India is taking on Bangladesh, restarting their Test season and eyeing the WTC final for the third time. The Men in Blue are wearing whites after a long while; the last time was against England in March, where they beat England 4-1. Now, they will look to add more solidity to their WTC table, where they are already on top. However, Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bowl. India has opted for three pacers and two spinners this time. But where is India playing, and why are they going with this attack?
Which stadium is India Playing Bangladesh?
MA Chidambaram Stadium, commonly known as Chepauk Stadium, Chennai, is hosting the game. As mentioned, the Indian captain came up with a surprise: more pacers and fewer spinners, breaking from the trend. This is because they are getting a red soil pitch this time, which favors pacers in the attack. India has R. Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja as their front-line spinners in the playing XI, while Jasprit Bumrah, Akash Deep, and Mohammed Siraj are the main pacers.
