The Bangladesh squad arrived in Chennai on Sunday afternoon, ahead of the opening Test against India starting on September 19.

“It’s definitely going to be a very challenging series for us,” Shanto was quoted as saying at the pre-departure press briefing at the Dhaka airport.

“After a good series (vs Pakistan) there is definitely an extra confidence in the team, in the people of the country. Every series is an opportunity.

“We will play to win both matches. The things that matter to win, the process matters… our aim will be to do the work properly. Good results are possible if we do our job properly,” the Bangladesh captain added.

Because India currently tops the world test championship table, however, Bangladesh skipper thinks that finally, it would be up for grabs on the basis of how they go about their task throughout the five days and may well get decided in the final session itself.

“If you see the ranking, they are much ahead of us,” Shanto noted.

“We have been playing well lately. We have had a good series. Our aim will be to play well for five days.

“The result comes in the last session on the last day. If we play good cricket for five days, there is a chance which team will be a chance for either team to win in the last session,” the skipper said just before boarding the flight to Chennai.
