The announcement ended speculation of India resting their top players, reports bdnews24.com.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Mashrafe said he had been hoping that India would bring their strongest team to Bangladesh.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&ldquo;Everyone had been hoping for their best team. We knew any India team would be a challenge. As it&rsquo;s their full team, the challenge is even greater,&rdquo; Mashrafe said on Thursday.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Indian selectors have pinned their hopes on their World Cup team that beat Bangladesh in the quarterfinal at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in March.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&ldquo;The ODI squad is quite identical to the World Cup&rsquo;s. Only (Mohammad) Shami isn&rsquo;t there due to injury. Their batting is undoubtedly the world&rsquo;s No.1. It will be a huge challenge for our bowlers,&rdquo; said the skipper.Right-arm seamer Dhawal Kulkarni has been drafted in to replace pacer Shami.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">India toured Bangladesh last year for three ODIs in which they rested Dhoni and Kohli and sent a team led by Suresh Raina.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&ldquo;There is always an extra pressure if the full team doesn&rsquo;t come. At least the question won&rsquo;t be asked this time. We will have the motivation to play well. They played in the World Cup semi-finals - it is their best team. The job is very difficult for us,&rdquo; Mashrafe added.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">The Indian team will arrive in Bangladesh for a Test and three ODIs on June 7. The one-off Test at Fatullah&rsquo;s Khan Shaheb Osman Ali Stadium will begin on June 10. The day-night ODIs will be played at Mirpur&rsquo;s Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium on June 18, 21 and 24.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
