Immediately after the conclusion of the ongoing Indian Premier League, India's cricketers leave for Bangladesh in the first week of June for a one-off Test and three-match One-Day International series.
Virat Kohli will lead the team for the Test, which will be played in Fatullah from June 10 to 14, while Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who retired from Test cricket mid-way through the Australia Test series last December, will captain the side in the three ODIs in Mirpur on June 18, 21 and 24.
All the ODIs will be day-night matches and have a reserve day in case of rain or any other interruption.
Ahead of the upcoming series Rajneesh Gupta presents a statistical outlook on the players selected for the two squads.
