5 reasons why India should take Bangladesh seriously

#3 Spinners who can exploit turning tracks

India should be well aware of the prowess of Mehedi Hasan

Bangladesh have a distinct advantage over other teams who have visited India such as England and South Africa – they have some very good tweakers. Most notable among them is Mehedi Hasan Miraz who picked up 19 wickets against England including two crucial 6-fors that wrecked England in the second Test. Shakib was the second highest wicket-taker in that series with 12 wickets.

Shakib also bagged six in New Zealand while Mehedi Hasan picked up four wickets. Bangladesh have several spinners at their disposal apart from the above two such as Taijul Islam and part-timer Mahmudullah. Bangladesh, unlike most visiting teams would hope for a slow turner as that makes them all the more potent.
