A lengthy absence from Test cricket and a lack of opportunities to play top nations have not helped their cause - the Chittagong Test was the first for Bangladesh in 15 months. That lack of Test cricket against the top teams has meant Bangladesh have found it difficult to maintain their intensity and play consistently over five days. And to play consistently for five days despite not having played Test cricket for 15 months is not easy. Over the next three months, Bangladesh will play two Tests in New Zealand and one in India. They hope to look back on Chittagong as the turning point in their Test history.
