India team, led by Rohit Sharma has arrived in Bangladesh today to play their first bilateral series here in Bangladesh since 2015.

The India team landed Bangladesh 6.40 PM after boarding a flight from Mumbai.

The Men in Blue are scheduled to play three ODIs and two Tests over the month. Both squads will be led by Rohit Sharma.

India named a strong team for both of the format of the cricket but notably, Jasprit Bumrah – currently recovering from a back injury – has not been included in either team. Prithvi Shaw doesn’t find a place either.

In the last bilateral series in 2015, India lost their first ever ODI series to Bangladesh by 2-1. The solitary Test between the two teams was drawn. India held the edge before rain washed out the game.
