Rahul’s last Test was in January against England, after which he was out of the rest of the series with a quadriceps injury. He gave a good account of himself in the same Duleep Trophy game, scoring 37 in the first innings and 57 in the second for India A. For India B, Pant scored 7 and 61, and took seven catches behind the stumps.
Dayal also impressed by picking up three wickets in the fourth innings to help India B to a comfortable win. He has played 24 first-class games so far in which he has picked 76 wickets at 28.89.
Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj are expected to lead the pace attack. In the spin department, India went with the usual suspects R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav.
The first Test against Bangladesh will be played in Chennai from September 19 and the second Test in Kanpur from September 27. The two Tests will be followed by three T20Is.
