The Indian cricket team is going to return to action once again from this month. It will play a 2-match home Test series against Bangladesh. The Indian team has already been announced for the first match of this series, which will be played in Chennai from 19 September. This match is going to be very special for Indian cricket. If Team India wins this match, it will do a feat that has not happened yet in the history of Indian Test cricket.

Team India has a chance to create history

India played its first match in Test cricket in 1932. Whereas, India won its first Test match in 1952.

That means it took almost 20 years for Team India to open its account of victory in Test cricket. But in today's time, it is not easy for anyone to defeat India. Team India is considered to be the best Test team in modern cricket. It is now very close to achieving a big feat.

Actually, Team India has played 579 Test matches so far. During this time, it has won 178 Test matches and lost the same number of matches. At the same time, 222 matches were drawn and 1 match was tied. In such a situation, if Team India defeats Bangladesh in the first match of the series, then it will have more wins than losses.

This will be the first time in the history of Indian cricket when Team India will have more wins than losses in the Test format. Let us tell you, Bangladesh has never defeated Team India in a Test match, so the Indian team has a big chance to create history.

Change came in Indian Test cricket after 2000

Till the year 2000, the performance of the Indian team in the Test format was not very good. It could win only 63 matches out of 336 and lost 112 matches. After this, there was a lot of change in Indian cricket. From 2001 till now, India has won 115 matches out of 243 and lost only 66.

During this period, 62 matches were drawn. The performance of the team under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma has also been very good. India has won 10 out of 16 Test matches under Rohit's captaincy and lost only 4 matches.
