After a 2-0 series victory against Pakistan, the Bangladesh cricket team is now preparing for their next mission—a tour of India as The Tigers will depart for India on September 15, where they will play two Test matches and three T20 internationals.

However, after Bangladesh’s historic campaign, former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly believes the Tigers will face a much tougher challenge in India.

"Beating Pakistan in Pakistan is no easy feat, so congratulations to Bangladesh for winning the series. But playing in India is a completely different challenge. Whether at home or abroad, India is a very strong team. I don't see any chances for Bangladesh,” Ganguly said to PTI.

“India will win the series. However, since Bangladesh is coming off a series win in Pakistan, they will be confident, so India needs to be prepared for a tough contest."

The first Test of the series will begin on September 19 in Chennai, followed by the second and final Test in Kanpur on September 27. The three-match T20 series will take place on October 6, 9, and 12.
