Team India sweat it out ahead of 1st Test vs Bangladesh; See what the team is up to

KL Rahul and Shakib-al-Hasan pose with the Test trophy ahead of the 1st Test match of the two-match series, starting December 14.

KS Bharat was seen polishing his catching behind the stumps. He may not start in the 1st Test, but can be an important part of the team if Pant isn't ready for any reason.

Shubman Gill is likely to open with KL Rahul in the 1st Test. Earlier, Rahul stated that Gill has made good use of the chances he has gotten. Come the 1st Test, Gill would want to bring his A-game and cement his place in the eleven.

Rishabh Pant was seen in full flow ahead of the 1st Test and BCCI also put out a video where the southpaw was seen having a good go at the bowlers. Pant has been going through a lean patch in white-ball cricket, but he would want to turn around the narrative by putting in a class performance against Bangladesh in the 1st ODI.

KL Rahul, much like Pant, hasn't had a great time in white-ball cricket. He has had moments of brilliance, but his batting has lacked consistency. Come the 1st Test, Rahul would want to rectify that and put in a strong performance.
