However, Umesh Yadav should bat in addition to the injured Saurabh Kumar and Abhimanyu Easwaran. Despite being selected for the Test squad, Jaydev Unadkat has not yet left for Bangladesh.

KL Rahul is anticipated to partner Shubman Gill, who was absent from the ODIs, at the top of the order. Rishabh Pant is a member of the Test team after being dropped from the ODI squad.
