New Delhi: Everyone expected that Rohit Sharma would give a chance to Kuldeep Yadav in the playing eleven in the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur against Bangladesh, but the surprising thing is that Kuldeep Yadav did not get a chance on the home ground. He will be seen in the second match also. . Rohit won the toss in this match and decided to bowl first and said that he has not made any changes in the team.
That means the same team has been selected in the Kanpur Test which was in the Chennai Test match. The team combination has three fast bowlers and two spinners. India landed in Chennai with this pair.
Rohit was surprised
Rohit's decision to go with three fast bowlers is surprising. The pitch of Kanpur is slow and made of black soil. The fast bowlers are not expected to get much help here. In such a situation, it was expected that Team India would field three spinners instead of three fast bowlers. But it didn't happen. Chennai was also expected to play with three spinners because the pitch there is also helpful for spinners. Something similar happened in Kanpur too, although Rohit surprised everyone with his decision to give preference to fast bowlers instead of three spinners.
While Rohit decided that he will go with three fast bowlers, Kuldeep will not get a chance on home ground. No matter what the format, Kuldeep is bowling brilliantly at the moment. His spin can trouble the batsmen here. Along with Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja, he could have bowled out Bangladesh cheaply but now Kuldeep will have to wait for his turn in the Test.
Bangladesh made changes
Bangladesh has made two changes in its playing-11. Nahid Rana and Taskin Ahmed had to go out. Both of them have been replaced by Taijul Islam and Khalid Ahmed.
