IND vs BAN Dream11 1st Test: India will be taking on Bangladesh in the first first Test of the three-match series from Friday, September 19 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. It is India's first Test match since March when they defeated England 4-1 at home.
On the other hand, Bangladesh are entering the series on the back of a historic 2-0 win in Pakistan. Their tour of Pakistan in August-September saw them beat Pakistan in the first match to register their first-ever Test win against the opposition. They won the second Test as well to win their first-ever Test series against Pakistan.

India and Bangladesh last played a Test match against each other in December 2022. India won both their matches on the Bangladesh tour. The Rohit Sharma-led side would be looking for another 2-0 win as they gear up for a busy Test season in which they will play 10 Test matches until January 7. India are eyeing a third consecutive place in the final of ICC Test Championship (WTC).

Hosts India are the red-hot favourites to beat Bangladesh in the opening Test of the two-match series. Bangladesh have played three Test matches in India, and lost each one of them. Beating India in India has been an herculean task for the best of teams, and therefore Bangladesh will be under a lot of pressure from Day 1 of the Test. India are a very balanced side. They have a solid batting unit, perfect all-rounders for the conditions, world-class spinners and pacers. Bangladesh are inexperienced in the bowling department, and tackling India will not be easy.
A rain shower is predicted around 2:00 PM on Day 1 of the Test match in Chennai. The precipitation level will be close to 50 percent from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM, but it will stay just around 20 percent during the remaining period of the play. With a humidity level close to 70-80 percent the temperature will hover around 30 degree celsius. There is no major rain threat for the last four days of the first Test in Chennai either.
