Bangladesh Shifts Focus to India Challenge After Historic Pakistan Win

Bangladesh's historic series victory against Pakistan has propelled the team into the spotlight, but their star player, Litton Das, is eager to shift focus to the upcoming challenge against India.

Das, who played a pivotal role in Bangladesh's triumph, believes it's crucial to leave the past behind and concentrate on the upcoming Test series against India. "We have played very well against Pakistan. That is already in the past," Das emphasized. "It's important to move on and focus on the big challenge ahead."

The Bangladesh team recognizes the magnitude of the task ahead, as they will face a formidable Indian side on their home turf. "When we play India at their home, they are always the better side," Das acknowledged. "They are a very good team in their own conditions."

One of the key challenges for Bangladesh will be adapting to the SG ball, which is used in Test matches in India. "The SG ball is somewhat difficult," Das observed. "It's tough to play with the Kookaburra when the ball is new, but it's easier to play once the ball is old. However, with the SG ball, playing with the new ball is somewhat easier, but playing with the old ball is tougher."

Despite the challenges, Das remains optimistic about Bangladesh's chances. "We are practicing, let's see what happens," he said. "We need to focus on this. In Test cricket, you have to win sessions. Every session is important."

Das believes that Bangladesh has room for improvement, particularly in the first sessions of their matches. "Personally I feel we couldn't play our 100% in the first sessions," he said. "There is room for a big improvement here."

As Bangladesh prepares for the India series, Das's leadership and determination will be crucial in guiding the team to success.
