India National Cricket Team pacer Avesh Khan has been having a decent time with the ball in the ongoing Duleep Trophy 2024 for India A. The match between his team and the India B is underway at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Avesh Khan has been bowling well in the ongoing game against India B. The fast bowler picked two wickets in the first innings and then managed just one wicket in the second innings, which would be crucial for his team on the last day of the game.
Avesh has been bowling hard lines and lengths in the game which has been troubling the batters. Even on Day 3 of the game, he is producing great bounce, which speaks volumes about the kind of performance he has been putting for the team in an ongoing game.
Not only has Avesh been bowling well, but the fast bowler hogged the headlines with the way he was treated by the fans. The pacer was standing near the boundary ropes on Day 3 of the game, and it was then that fans at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru teased him.
In the video that has gone viral on the internet, fans can be seen chanting RCB-RCB when Avesh was fielding near the boundary ropes. The fast bowler, however, came up with a hand gesture to fans in which he can be seen asking them to continue their chants aimed at him.
Here's the video:

The batter ended with an innings of 46 runs off 36 balls and also slammed 7 fours and 1 six, batting with a strike rate of around 128.
Avesh Khan is in line to be selected for the Indian Test team for the Bangladesh Tests
As per the reports in News 18, it is learned that fast bowler Avesh Khan is in line to be selected for the two-match Test series against the Bangladesh National Cricket Team. Star pacer Jasprit Bumrah is likely to be rested for the series and there might be opportunities for the same other fast bowlers.
As per the reports, it is learned that BCCI selectors are looking at pacers who can partner Mohammed Siraj with the new ball. Avesh Khan has emerged as the premier candidate to be selected for the team in the two-match Test series against the Bangladesh National Cricket Team.
The Test series between India and Bangladesh will begin on 19th September. The first match of the series between the teams will be played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai and after that second game will be played from 27th September in Kanpur.
Both games will be part of the ICC World Test Championship and will be crucial for both the teams in context of reaching the final. Bangladesh would be high on confidence after having whitewashed Pakistan in the recently concluded Test series. India, on the other hand, will be playing the format for the first time since March.
