In Short

• Indian team arrived in Kanpur on September 24
• The players were seen in high spirits before 2nd Test
• India will aim to wrap up series 2-0 in Kanpur

The Indian cricket team had a fun trip from Chennai to Kanpur as R Ashwin revealed he was being 'bullied' by his teammates while Yashasvi Jaiswal said he felt like Sachin Tendulkar for a moment after his banter with Sarfaraz Khan. India and Bangladesh will collide in the 2nd Test of the series, starting from September 27, Friday. The hosts already have a 1-0 lead in the series after they dominated Bangladesh at the Chepauk in Chennai.

Now the action shifts to Green Park in Kanpur as the Indian team made their trip to the city on Tuesday. A video released by the BCCI on Wednesday showed that the mood in the camp was a jovial one as the players were seen having a laugh and cracking a few jokes. It all started with Sarfaraz as he started to chant 'Yashu, Yashu' for Jaiswal. The southpaw commented on it by saying that he has fan following like Tendulkar.

"I have a craze like Sachin Tendulkar," said Jaiswal.

Ashwin was the next man in focus as Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja decided to call him 'Ash anna.' The duo would go on to coin the term 'Ash anna for a reason', much like the famous 'Thala for a reason' phrase famous with Dhoni. Ashwin would go on to say,

"They are just bullying me."
