Unfazed by the Harbhajan Singh episode, India will seek to maintain the domination they established in the Test matches when they take on Bangladesh in the first encounter of the three-match one-day cricket series on Thursday.
Harbhajan was reported for suspect bowling action during the second Test but that seems to have had little or no impact on the Indians who were preparing to sweep the series and end what has been a roller-coaster year on a positive note.
"It is a routine, a number of bowlers have been reported in the last few months. It has become part and parcel of the game," coach John Wright said.
"Harbhajan and the whole team is pretty relaxed. We want to try and replicate the performance of the Test series. We are looking for a 3-0 result."
Bangladesh on the other hand would be drawing hope from their spirited performance in the first innings of the second Test which saw young Mohammad Ashraful hit a dazzling 158 not out.
The 20-year-old right-handed batsman became the top scorer for Bangladesh in Tests and the disdainful manner in which he batted against Irfan Pathan and Zaheer Khan should inspire more confidence in the hosts.
