    Right now India is in Bangladesh to play two test matches and before the start of series it is consider by the experts that India has very good option to increase the gap of numbers from second rank team that is South Africa, as Bangladesh has not impressive test matches history which also prove when we look the chart of test match ranking where India is number one team and Bangladesh is last in the ranking. One day before the start of first test match that is on 16th January,2010 Mr. Mahender Singh Dhoni was rule out to play the game because of injury and his deputy Mr. Virender Sehwag get chance to lead the team, during press conference same day as it is now also become custom of interaction by media one day before the begin of game with both captains , during press conference on that day Mr.Sehwag declared that Bangladesh is average team and Bangladesh Captain Mushfiqur Rahim also hit back Sehwag by saying no doubt India is number one test team of ICC ranking but Australia and South Africa are better teams from India. Cricket lovers took these views as war of words because to make game exciting and interesting one can often hear from the rival captain such type of statement and thus everything comes to an end as real game has to be played on field rest is recipe to attract crowd.
    On 17th Janury,2010 first test match started at Zohur Ahmed Chawdary Stadium,.Chittagong which was test no.1949 of ICC and would be played from 17th January,2010 to 21stJanuary,2010.Bangladesh won the toss and opted to field first. Indian Cricket team management picks all the missiles they had like Sachin Tendulakar, VVS Laxman, Rahul Dravid and Virender Sehwag to name a few of playing eleven but when first day play end due to bad weather scorecard was disaster for Indian fans as India was 213/8.Had it not been bad weather interruption in the game then it would have been more shameful scorecard? Sachin Tendulakar is still on crease with 76 and other major contribution comes from Captain Mr. Sehwag of 52 runs and rest did nothing with bat. Question rises if it was the out of skin performance of average Bangladeshi Cricket Team ?or it is the over confidence of Indian Cricket team who took lightly/average opposition team ,no Indian fan would ever want to see this scorecard again, but whatever the reason may be if they do practice considering opposition team and there history then it is matter of few days to remain on top because whenever any team get down on filed then they wont in the field merely to play the game but certainly make some plan against good players of opposition team to tackle them effectively.
    Four days left for the first test match and to turn table now India need to perform and play with full discipline and every half chance have to grab so that result should be in their favour. Otherwise Mr. Virender Sehwag’s statement of average is ready to be prove Boomerang.
