Bangladesh's captain, Shakib Al Hasan, was initially selected to lead the team on the tour. However, on 29 October 2019, the International Cricket Council (ICC) banned Shakib from all cricket for two years, with one year suspended, after breaching the ICC's Anti-Corruption Code. Following Shakib's ban, Mominul Haque was named as the team's Test captain and Mahmudullah was named as the captain of the T20I side.
The first match of the tour, the T20I in Delhi, was the 1,000th men's Twenty20 International match to be played. Bangladesh won the match by seven wickets, to record their first ever victory against India in the format. However, India won the next two matches to win the series 2–1. In the third and final match, India's Deepak Chahar took six wickets for seven runs to record the best bowling figures in a T20I match.
India won the Test series 2–0, with both matches finishing inside three days. It was India's twelfth-consecutive Test series win at home, the most by any team at home. It was also India's seventh-consecutive win in Tests, a record for the team, and the seventh-consecutive win under Virat Kohli's captaincy, also a record for India. India's winning margin in the second Test of an innings made them the first team to record four consecutive wins in Test cricket by an innings.
