1st Test: India Extend Dominance Over Bangladesh On 17-wicket Day, Lead Swells To 308
MA Chidambaram Stadium: On the back of R. Ashwin's ton that took them to 376 in the first innings and bowlers dismissing Bangladesh for just 149, India swelled their lead to 308 and extended their dominance over the visitors on Day Two of the first Test at the MA Chidambaram Stadium here on Friday.
On a day in which 17 wickets fell, India could add just 37 runs to their total in the first hour against the second new ball as their first innings ended in 91.2 overs. In reply, Jasprit Bumrah picked 4-50 in a relentless and searing fast bowling show to dismiss Bangladesh cheaply in just one and a half sessions and take a 227-run lead.
India decided not to enforce follow-on and at stumps, reached 81/3 in 23 overs of their second innings. With Shubman Gill (33 not out) and Rishabh Pant (12 not out) at the crease, India will be aiming to bat Bangladesh out of the game after having another brilliant day at Chepauk.
