MA Chidambaram Stadium: Jasprit Bumrah, Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Siraj picked more scalps as India reduced Bangladesh to 112/8 in 36.5 overs at tea on day two of the first Test at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Friday.
The second session saw Bangladesh to lose wickets in a heap as they lost five more batters and are still trailing India by a huge 264 runs, even as a searing Bumrah became the sixth Indian pacer to claim 400 international wickets.
Post lunch, Siraj got a ball to hold its line and take the outside edge off Najmul Hossain Shanto’s bat straight to third slip. In the next over, Bumrah got the ball to move late and took a healthy edge of Mushfiqur Rahim’s poke to second slip. Despite relentless lines and lengths from the bowlers, Litton Das and Shakib Al Hasan ensured things went Bangladesh’s way.
