The Indian cricket team toured Bangladesh from 10 to 24 June 2015.[1] The tour consisted of one Test match and three One Day International (ODI) matches. Because of the series taking place during monsoon season, each ODI had a reserve day allocated.[1] The one-off Test finished in a draw and Bangladesh won the ODI series 2–1.

## Squads

[edit]

On 4 June, Bangladesh's Mahmudullah was ruled out of the series after fracturing his finger in training.[2] Two days later, India's KL Rahul was ruled out of the Test match because of illness.[3]
