Team India: There is a lot of excitement among the fans about the India and Bangladesh Test series. Both the teams will face each other in a two-match series from the 19th of this month. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has already announced the 16-member squad of Team India.

However, there are 4 such players in the team who have been selected only to serve water during the match. Let us know in detail in this article which cricketers we are talking about.

Players who gave water in Bangladesh series

Team India

Young fast bowler Yash Dayal has got a ticket to Team India for the first time in the Test series against Bangladesh. However, the team already has three fast bowlers in the form of Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj and Akash Deep.

In such a situation, captain Rohit Sharma will hardly play more than three pacers on the turning tracks of India. In that sense, it does not seem possible for Yash to play.

Apart from him, Sarfaraz Khan also does not seem to have a place in the final eleven in the presence of Virat Kohli and KL Rahul. Also, Rishabh Pant is being considered as the main wicketkeeper in place of wicketkeeper batsman Dhruv Jurel. This means that Jurel will sit on the bench in both the matches. The fourth player can be all-rounder Akshar Patel. Team India already has three spin options in the form of Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav.

In such a situation, Akshar will be left to serve the rest of the three players.

Team India will start the campaign on this day

Team India will play the first match of the two-match Test series against Bangladesh from September 19. M Chidambaram i.e. Chepauk ground in Chennai will host this big match. Spin dominates here. In such a situation, India seems to have an upper hand due to the presence of excellent spinners like Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav in the team.

However, Bangladesh will also be in high spirits after defeating Pakistan in their own home in the recent Test series.

In such a situation, Rohit and company will need to be cautious and avoid complacency.
