We are well prepared for the India series: Bangladesh's Nahid Rana

Bangladesh’s tearaway quick Nahid Rana said his team is “well prepared” for the two-match Test series in India, starting on September 19. 

Bangladesh have never beaten India in a Test match but are coming into this series on the back of a historic 2-0 whitewash over Pakistan.

"Obviously, we are well prepared for the India series. We have started training. The more we are prepared, the better we will be in execution during the matches," Rana said in a video shared by Bangladesh Cricket on 'X', formerly Twitter.

"India are a good team, but the team that plays better cricket will win. We will see when we go there."

The right-arm paceman, who made his Test debut earlier this year, played a major role in Bangladesh’s series win over Pakistan. Rana dismissed Babar Azam in the first Test and then claimed four wickets in the third innings of the second Test in Rawalpindi. 

"Before leaving, I had said that I wanted to achieve something for my country, and it feels great to have delivered on what was expected of me,” he added.

"I don't want to be like anyone else. I want to create my own identity and be known as Nahid Rana of Bangladesh”

Talking about his speed, Rana said, "Pace is something you can't always predict -- it depends a lot on rhythm. Sometimes, it just clicks, and suddenly, you find yourself hitting those speeds."

The first Test will be played in Chennai before the action shifts to Kanpur for the second game, starting on September 27.
