There is no way to take the Bangladesh team lightly now. We know that Bangladesh team is weak in Test format. And the Bangladeshi squad is very weak compared to the giants like India. But the performance of Bangladeshi players against Pakistan surprised everyone. Bangladesh won the Test series at Pakistan's home. Even in both matches, Bangladesh won by dominating.

India's management experience. At this moment, they will not make the big mistake of taking the Bangladesh team lightly. India will field their best squad considering the pitch conditions. And I think India will win both Test matches against Bangladesh.

Yes, there is no way to take Bangladesh lightly, that's for sure from the Pakistan series. But India's venue should be taken care of. India has two different venues for the two Test matches and the spin at both venues will be helpful. There the spinners will get extra advantage. I think India will do better than Bangladesh in the spin assisted field. I believe that both Bangladesh and India will do well in the bowling innings in terms of spin ball. However, Bangladesh is a bit weaker than India in batting innings. Almost all Indian batsmen can bat well against spin but Bangladesh batsmen are shaky against off spin bowlers.

Bangladesh's spin bowling line-up will consist of Mehdi Hasan Miraj, Taijul Islam, Shakib Al Hasan and additional spinner Naeem Islam, who are very good bowlers and proven in international cricket. On the other hand, India's spin bowling will include Ravichandan Ashwin, Ravind Jadeja, Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav.

It is almost certain that the Bangladeshi batsmen will be given a tough test against the Indian spinners. But India have always batted well against spinners. It remains to be seen how the pace bowlers will fare in Chennai and Kanpur grounds. Bangladesh can do well if the pace bowlers dominate there, as Bangladesh have some good pace bowlers who I would put ahead of the Indian bowlers and the Indian batsmen seem to struggle against the pace bowlers. Since India will play two Tests on spin-aided pitches, I will tip India to win the series.
