In the first Test match between India and Bangladesh in Chennai, India is in the lead. After scoring 376 in the first session, Bangladesh was left reeling at 112-8 at tea. With the ball, the Indian bowlers were unstoppable. After Jasprit Bumrah removed Shadman Islam, India claimed their first wicket. Next, Akash Deep dealt Bangladesh a double blow when he removed Mominul Haque and Zakir Hasan in quick succession. After joining the party, Mohammed Siraj dismissed Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto, and Bumrah came back to fire Mushfiqur Rahim.

Shakib Al Hasan and Litton Das attempted to hold off the Indian bowlers, scoring 51 runs for the sixth wicket; however, Ravindra Jadeja dismissed both of them in quick succession, putting Bangladesh in serious danger. Morne Morkel, the bowling coach for India, was ecstatic to see the Indian pacers go crazy. SAW

Jadeja and Ashwin Save India

Meanwhile, if R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja hadn’t saved India from disaster, things may have turned out differently. Hasan Mahmud left the hosts reeling at 144-6, rattling India early. When Ashwin and Jadeja teamed up, they had a fantastic 199-run partnership. Jadeja made an 89-run contribution and R Ashwin hit an incredible 113. India scored 376 runs in the first innings thanks to the exceptional knocks.
