India's Likely XI vs Bangladesh: No Third Pacer, Three Spinners Are R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja And...

As India prepares to face Bangladesh in the first Test of their upcoming series, former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina has recommended a bold strategy for the Indian team. Raina suggested that India should deploy a spin-dominant attack with three spinners and two fast bowlers for the match, which begins on Thursday at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Raina's strategy is driven by the nature of the Chennai pitch, which he expects to favor spinners due to its black soil composition. He proposed selecting Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, and Kuldeep Yadav as the spin trio, alongside fast bowlers Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah.

India To Play 3 Spinners vs Bangladesh As Youngster Misses Out? Report Says...

India take on Bangladesh in the first Test encounter at the M Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai starting Thursday. The Rohit Sharma-led side will return to action after more than a month-long break and questions remain over what team composition India will go with in this game. According to a report by Press Trust Of India (PTI), head coach Gautam Gambhir and skipper Rohit Sharma is expected to go with three spinners - Kuldeep Yadav, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. That means Axar Patel will miss out of selection. Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj will be the pacers in the encounter.

Not Getting Many Test Opportunities Breeds More Hunger, Says New Zealand Spinner Ajaz Patel

Disappointed that he did not get many opportunities to play Test cricket following his historic 10-wicket haul, Ajaz Patel believes that such setbacks only intensify the drive and ambition in New Zealand spinners to prove themselves in the subcontinent. Spinners from New Zealand frequently face a challenging environment at home to showcase their skills as pitches and conditions there offer more assistance to seamers. "If you ask all New Zealand spinners, it is difficult. Sometimes, obviously you don't get as many opportunities at home because of our home conditions," Patel told reporters here on Friday ahead of New Zealand's one-off Test against Afghanistan, which begins from September 9.

Watch: Sri Lanka Spinner Prabath Jayasuriya Sparks Shane Warne's 'Ball Of The Century' Memory With Stunner

Sri Lanka cricket team spinner Prabath Jayasuriya almost recreated Shane Warne's famous 'Ball of the Century' to dismiss Harry Brook on Day 2 of the first Test match against England on Thursday. Jayasuriya came up with an absolute stunner that left Brook completely stunned and sparked comparisons with Warne's magical delivery back in 1993. The ball pitched around the middle and leg stump line before turning sharply to crash into the off-stump. Brook was batting at 56 and looked in quite a good touch but the ball completely bamboozled the England batter. The video of the dismissal went viral on social media with both fans and experts showering praise on the Sri Lanka cricketer.
