The Australia National Cricket Team wicket-keeper batter Josh Inglis has suffered an injury ahead of the two-match Test series against the Bangladesh National Cricket Team. This is a massive blow for the Kangaroos given his form, as he has done well in white-ball cricket and has played very little recent red-ball cricket.
The Aussies are set to host the Bangla Tigers for the very first time in a two-match Test series in 23 years. The first match is scheduled to take place from August 13 to 17 at the MCG 2, in Darwin. The matches form part of the 2025–2027 ICC World Test Championship. Both sides will have a good competition, with the home side naming a full squad.

Josh Inglis gets injured ahead of Bangladesh Test
Ahead of the series, the Aussies are on the back foot with Josh Inglis being injured. As per the reports and visuals, he was struggling with back spasms on the first day of Australia's training camp. But he is believed to be fine in the upcoming days, although he has had these before and will be constantly monitored.
Cricket Australia will take no risks if there are any serious injury concerns, as they will add his replacement to the squad soon if Josh Inglis is unable to find himself fully fit before the start of the first Test match. Inglis has always been struggling with injuries in recent times.
