Intro:

India look to avoid one-day international series whitewash against Bangladesh on Tuesday (23rd June), ahead of the third ODI in Dhaka.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Ravichandran Ashwin, India (on how to tackle Rahman's bowling):

"See, it's not a media news. It's international cricket. I think everybody is professional enough to analyse what needs to be done. And there is an encounter tomorrow, what can we do? Can we kidnap him (Mustafizur Rahman)? No, we can't we have to come out there and play some good cricket, solid cricket and try and make sure that you nullify the fact that ... he does bowl a good cutter, and that's something that we have to watch out for and give him the respect, respect is what is important in international cricket."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Ravichandran Ashwin, India (on Bangladesh's improvement):

"Bangladesh wasn't winning a lot of games in the last three years, but they've tried to maintain a good momentum. But they also started getting better and started winning games. So, ideally losing is not the end of it. Like I would say, losers have a lot of parents and winners have a lot of parents as well. At this point of time, it's a very hard game for us. We know we are trying to come back from our lost series, but having said that, that's the way things goes. You can't duck away from the fact that there is a game to go and we can't really throw in the towel, So, yes, that's how it goes."
