In India\u2019s case, a faster spinning brand as the new captain will be stepping in for a decisively shifted white-ball construction with a T20 WC looming over Bangladesh 2026. On the opposite end, the bold decision of placing the struggling veterans and nurturing a newer core to the leadership role signifies a grounded but powerful agenda for the Bangladeshis.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With stunner batting aplenty and a grudging demeanor, spinners on slower paced pitches prove to be far better in Bangladesh.
