The Indian cricket team, led by skipper Rahul Dravid, on Monday arrived in Dhaka to play three one-day internationals and two Tests against Bangladesh.
India will play the first two one-dayers in Mirpur on May 10 and May 12 and the third match in Chittagong on May 15.
The first Test will be played at Chittagong from May 18 and second and final match at Dhaka from May 25.
Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Wasim Jaffer, VVS Laxman, Anil Kumble, Rajesh Pawar, V R V Singh and Ramesh Pawar, who are included only in the Test squad, will join the the team on May 15.
The team management informed that Dravid's recovery is satisfactory. The Indian captain was hit on his nose while practising on the penultimate day of the conditioning camp in Kolkata.
A scan was done on his nose and it was found to be "okay", team sources said.
However, if Dravid fails to recover in time for the first one-dayer then Virender Sehwag is likely to lead Team India.

"In case Rahul misses the match, seniority-wise, Sehwag should lead the side," Venkatapathy Raju, one of the selectors, said.
Dravid, in his interaction with the media after the team's photo session on Sunday night said he would be fit to play the first ODI on May 10.
"We are well prepared for the series. I think we will have a good series. It is definitely like any other series, we are here to win," Dravid said on landing in Bangladesh.
Dravid did not see the current tour as a revenge series after India were upset by Bangladesh in the recent World Cup match resulting in their first round exit from the mega event.
"We are not here for revenge," he said.
Complimenting Bangladesh for their recent performance in the World Cup, Dravid said the Indians were hoping to face a quality opposition.
