IND vs BAN 2022: Bangladesh and India are set to lock horns against each other in an ODI and a Test series. The Bangladesh team will host India for three ODIs and two Tests beginning on 4th December 2022. But before the series begins, Bangladesh have been dealt with a major blow. 

According to Bangladesh Cricket Board's chief selector Minhazul Abedin, star pacer Taskin Ahmed has been ruled out of the opening ODI against India on 4th December. Taskin is ruled out from the opening game of the ODIs as his back pain recurred," BCB's Minhajul told Cricbuzz on Thursday. "We will be seeing his progress before taking further decisions regarding his participation," he added. Ahmed has been Bangladesh's backbone in the bowling department and is in fiery touch in recent times.
