The second test is set to take place at Green Park in Kanpur. India has opted to stick with the same squad for the second test, indicating that there may not be any changes in the playing XI.

Conversely, Bangladesh faced difficulties in the Indian conditions during the first game. They will need a solid strategy in place if they hope to fare better in the second game. Otherwise, they may find themselves struggling once again.
