India is all set to return to action after 45 days when they take on Bangladesh in a two-match Test series starting on September 19 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Some of the key players will be in action for the Indian team. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli They will be the pillars with the bat in the series, jasprit bumrah He has also joined the squad for the first Test despite rumours that he might be rested. However, none of these three superstars have been considered as the biggest threat by Bangladesh’s star wicketkeeper-batsman. Litton Das.
In an interaction with ESPN Cricinfo, Litton Das said that the SG ball will be more difficult to play with in India. For those unaware, the ball manufactured by the SG company is used in India while the Kookaburra ball is mostly used elsewhere. Das said that the Kookaburra ball is easier to play with when it gets older compared to the SG ball.
“The ball will be different in India. It is a little bit difficult to play against the SG ball. The Kookaburra ball is easier to play against when it gets old. With the SG ball it is the opposite. It is more difficult to get away against the old ball when it comes to the SG,” Litton Das said.
Bangladesh come into the Test series against India after a historic series win against Pakistan, where they became the first Asian team to sweep a Test series in Pakistan. However, Litton Das said they do not want to dwell on past victories.
“We played some good cricket against Pakistan but that is now in the past. It is important that we look ahead. We will need help from you (the media). It would be a big help if you don’t talk about the series against Pakistan. As a player, that is now in the past for me,” the star wicketkeeper-batsman said.
