The other reason why the Indians may not fall prey to complacency is because of the recent war of words between MS Dhoni and Ian Chappell.

The Bangladeshi side, on the other hand, have not played a Test since July, when they had faced West Indies. This will mean that they will be rusty in this format game, having played quite many ODIs in the interim. This contrast between the two sides puts the Indians as humongous favourites; Bwin offering 1.166 for an Indian win as compared to Stan James’ 23 for Bangladesh to stun their rivals. The captain Shakib-al-hasan is hoping that the side will be able to draw the game on a placid track and Betfred offers 7 bucks for a draw!
