India will take on Bangladesh in the two-match Test series starting September 19 in Chennai.
They will be back playing in whites after six months, under new coach Gautam Gambhir. Here are 3 Indian players looking to make a Test comeback through the series.
Virat Kohli is set to make a much-awaited return to the Test squad after an eight month hiatus. His last appearance in the longest format was in January 2024.
Rishabh Pant is likely to make his comeback to the longest format after 634 days. Pant’s return follows a long recovery from a severe accident.
He is in the last leg of his recovery from an ankle injury, suffered during the 2023 ODI World Cup. The BCCI selectors might make him play a Duleep Trophy match to check if he is fit enough for the IND vs BAN series.
