The third match Tuesday is now only of academic interest. The two teams might include a few players who have not appeared in the first two matches.
'We reached here early morning and the players had a swimming pool session -, which lasted about 30-40 minutes,' Bhave, a former first-class player, told IANS over phone from Chittagong.

India will also play two Test matches starting May 18 in Chittagong. The second match will be held in Dhaka from May 25.
