India vs Bangladesh 2017: 5 players to watch out for

Ravindra Jadeja Test
Jadeja has proved to be a lethal weapon for India over the years

#3 Tamim Iqbal

Tamim Iqbal is Bangladesh’s mainstay at the top of the innings

The aggressive Bangladeshi opener is a fine batsman and could be a key for the visitors in this series given his style of batting. The ever looming threat of Ashwin and Jadeja means visitors try not to lose early wickets to the seamers while scoring maximum runs.

This is where someone like Tamim Iqbal could be a threat for the Indians. He can get Bangladesh off to a flier which could help them play Ashwin and Jadeja with a better platform.

Tamim is Bangladesh's second highest run scorer in Tests since 2016 after Shakib with 325 runs in 4 Tests at an average of 40.62 and a hundred to show for his efforts. He would definitely like to put the Indian attack to the sword in the Test series.
