Indian vice-captain Ajinka Rahane said that they are not taking anything for granted against Bangladesh and expect hard fight from the visitors.
India will take on Bangladesh in the opening game of the ongoing two-match Test series against India at Indore from Thursday.
‘’Bangladesh is a very good team. They compete, the play as a team, play as a unit. We always focus on our strengths rather than thinking about the opponents. We respect them but it’s important to play to our strengths. We played very well against South Africa but that’s past now. With (World) Test Championship every match is equally important,’’ Rahane told reporters on Tuesday at Indore.
‘’We like to take one game at a time which is Indore now. We are focussing on this Test and then we’ll think about Kolkata. We completely respect the Bangladesh team and going to play to our strength rather than thinking about theirs,’’ he said.
‘’I am sure Bangladesh will come really hard at us, and they will give their best to win this Test match and the Test series. For us itt is really important that we focus on our strengths to stay in the present. Let's not look in the past, what happened against SA,’’ he said.
‘’I think every series comes with a different challenge, Bangladesh comes with a different challenge. We're going to respect that and we're going to play to our strengths,’’ he added
