1. Shakib Al Hasan

On number one is the former Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan knows what it takes to beat India on their home turf. He hasn’t done very well in the series against Pakistan, but a cricketer of his stature can never be counted out. The 37-year-old has played plenty of matches in the Indian subcontinent and understands how the conditions work, and that’s why he can be a massive threat to India.

The all-rounder has played eight Test matches against India in his career. He has scored 376 runs at an average of 26.85 and with the ball, he has 21 wickets to his name. Meanwhile, given his age, this can be Shakib’s last tour to India and he would hope to finish it on a good note and that is by helping Bangladesh win.

He will be extremely vital for the team. He has played enough cricket against the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul among others, and knows their weaknesses well, courtesy of playing a lot in the IPL. The conditions will also help him and so, this is like a now or never moment for Shakib.
