After exiting from the semi-final of the ICC World Cup 2019, Team India has lost just one international game out of 14 games they have played. Recently they whitewashed South Africa in a three-match Test series. Having taken an unassailable 2-0 series win against the Proteas after the win in Pune in a dominating fashion, they outdid themselves during the third and final Test in Ranchi.
Team India produced yet another brilliant performance with the batting lineup led by Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane followed by a bowling clinic by the pacers. Wrapping up the entire South African batting order twice in two days and winning the match in Ranchi with two days to spare.

Virat Kohli and his men made their winning streak in the longest format of the game at home even better, and are leading the ICC World Test Championship with a massive 240 points.

The brutal display of cricketing prowess by the team led their Head Coach Ravi Shastri to compare them to a Ferrari. After the Ranchi Test, Shastri said, “Once you take 20 wickets, with the batsmen we have, if that clicks, it’s like a Ferrari,” he said after the third Test.

I’d say England are currently a TVR. Looks good, can be amazing. But often breaks down

Having dominated the South Africans in every way possible, Team India will now be locking horns with Bangladesh for a three-match T20I series followed by a two-match Test series, provided the Bengal tigers reach an agreement with Bangladesh Cricket Board and lift their boycott from playing cricket in time.
