Here are the key stats:
*India and South Africa are the only teams against whom Bangladesh are yet to win a Test.
*The Tigers have lost 11 of their 13 Tests against India, with two of these fixtures ending in draws.
*India have won a record successive 17 Test series at home — the longest streak in this regard by any side. They have lost just four of the 51 Tests at home since a 2-1 series defeat at home against England back in 2012.

*Mushfiqur is also just 108 runs away from being the first Bangladeshi cricketer to 6000 Test runs.
*Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, who has scored 4543 Test runs, is just eight wickets away from getting into the elite club of 4000-plus runs and 250-plus wickets in Tests alongside the likes of Ian Botham, Kapil Dev, Jacques Kallis and Daniel Vettori.
