India will take on Bangladesh in the second Test match of the series at Dhaka. The visitors had won the first game at Chittagong rather impressively and will be favourites to make it 2-0 in this game; unless the Bangladeshis could come up with something extraordinary.
India had struggled while batting in the first innings thanks to the inclement weather and the ensuing swing and the bounce that the bowlers extracted from the pitch. However, once the conditions improved, the Bangladeshis were no match for the Indian side. One can expect the Dhaka pitch to be much better for the batsmen, and that is the one reason one thinks that the Indians should be able to dominate from the word go.
The last time the two sides had played on this ground, the Indians had had the top four batsmen score centuries. One can be rest assured that the players like Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir will be licking their lips in anticipation.
The Bangladeshis will need to bat a lot better than they did in the first game. With Harbhajan Singh making it back to the side, it will only get more difficult for the opposition batsmen to get going; especially after getting a start will be tough against the wily offie.
India will hard core favourites to make it 2-0 and Sky Bet offers 1.33 for their win. With the weather expected to hold up, a draw looks to be out of question, while the chances of Bangladesh to make it 1-1 are pegged at an offer of 17 by 888Sport. Impossible one would say!
