5 Bangladeshi players who can trouble India

#3 Mushfiqur Rahim

With nothing to lose, Mushfiqur will want to score big against India

The visitors’ captain carries a heavy burden. The pocket rocket Mushfiqur Rahim not only keeps wickets, but is also their middle order batting mainstay. Add to that the pressure of captaincy. He will be returning to the side after having missed the last Test against New Zealand.

His fighting 159 and an inspiring 359 run partnership with Shakib against New Zealand, will be fresh in memory. Despite being small-statured, the Bangladeshi skipper is known to punch above his weight, and there will surely be an interesting contest at hand if he can get his team to collectively do that against India.

Rahim has already stated that this is not a landmark Test for him or his team and that they will play like they have nothing to lose. Bangladesh can be a dangerous side when they play in such a manner and a lot will depend on how Mushfiqur shepherds his team.
