Team India Prepares for Crucial Test Series Against Bangladesh with New Coach

Rohit Sharma's Indian cricket team, under new coach Gautam Gambhir, begins preparations for the upcoming two-Test series against Bangladesh. The squad, which includes stars like Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, and Rishabh Pant, is focused on regaining momentum in the World Test Championship after a disappointing ODI series against Sri Lanka.

Rohit Sharma's side is back to business after a month-long break, preparing for the two-Test series against Bangladesh under new coach Gautam Gambhir. Preparations began at MA Chidambaram Stadium with the entire squad in attendance.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared images of the first day of practice, noting the team's high spirits as they gear up for an exciting home season. Skipper Rohit and batting icon Virat Kohli arrived in Chennai ahead of the first Test, scheduled from September 19.

The Indian team, aiming to rebound from their recent ODI series loss to Sri Lanka, is keen to make a strong start under Gambhir's leadership. The series also holds significant World Test Championship points as India prepares for a challenging season ahead, including upcoming matches against New Zealand and Australia.
