The Indian cricket team is set to face Bangladesh in a two-match Test series, with the first match commencing on October 19 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. As both teams prepare for these crucial red-ball clashes, all eyes are on India's Test skipper, Rohit Sharma.

The right-handed batter enters the series in impressive form, having scored a century in his last Test innings. Rohit Sharma accumulated a robust 103 off 162 balls, showcasing his current prowess.

Rohit has been particularly exceptional in home Tests, where his aggressive batting style has frequently dismantled opposition bowlers.  The 37-year-old veteran has an impressive career record, accumulating 4,137 runs across 59 Tests at an average of 45.46, including 12 centuries and 17 half-centuries. His form as a captain has also been noteworthy, with 1,090 runs and four centuries to his name in the role.

Bangladesh, under the leadership of Najmul Hossain Shanto, will have to find ways to curb Rohit's aggressive play. Historically, left-arm pacers have troubled him, but with Bangladesh lacking a frontline left-arm seamer, Rohit may find more freedom to attack. Given his recent form and Bangladesh's bowling attack, he is expected to maintain his aggressive approach and convert his starts into significant scores.

Rohit Sharma's Past Record Against Bangladesh

Rohit Sharma's past performances against Bangladesh in Test cricket have been underwhelming. He has scored 33 runs across three Test matches at an average of 11.00, with a highest score of just 21. However, with his current form and experience, Sharma is well-positioned to overcome these past struggles and make a significant impact in the upcoming series.
