India to tour Bangladesh for one Test, three ODIs

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced that India will be touring Bangladesh for one Test and three ODIs in June. The fixtures for the same have also been announced.

India will play a Test at Fatullah from June 10-14 while the three ODIs will be played on 18th, 21st and 24th of the same month. All the ODIs will take place in Mirpur.

This will be India's first series after the World Cup but with a majority of the players playing in the Indian Premier League, it remains to be seen if they do send a full-strength team to Bangladesh. The IPL ends on May 24th and that means that some players might get only a two week gap before embarking on national duty.

Suresh Raina led India to victory against the hosts in a three-match ODI series last year but this will be the first time India meet Bangladesh in a Test after January 2010.
