India at Bangladesh

India vs Bangladesh 1st Test Day 1 Live Score: Shubman Gill and KL Rahul added 41 runs for the opening wicket after India won the toss and opted to bat.

India have played only a handful of Tests this year and the outcome has not been an ideal one. Rohit Sharma, who was initially part of the series, was sent back to India after he injured his thumb. Taijul Islam bowls it quick in the air, as Pujara bends and plays the ball with soft hands. He was seen doing the same in the opening session. He then craftily guides a back of a length ball for a boundary towards the third man region. India will look to add at least 100-125 runs in the remaining time, and hope they don't lose too many wickets in the process. Ebadot Hossain pitches it up and wide and Shreyas Iyer drives it towards the cover for a boundary. He plays a pitched up delivery in the gap on the onside, which results in four. Shreyas Iyer charges down the track against Mehidy Hasan and goes for the aerial route. Now Pujara gets innovative as he shuffles in the crease and plays a late sweep behind the wicketkeeper for a boundary against Mehidy. He cuts it in the gap between the fielders as the shots races to the fence. Catch Highlights of India vs Bangladesh (IND vs BAN) 1st Test Day 1.

Bangladesh reduced their opponents to 48/3 in the opening session of the Test, but fifties from Pujara, Iyer and Ashwin bailed them out of trouble to post a total in excess of 400. Shakib went after the Indian bowlers and hit a flurry of boundaries but he was eventually castled by Kuldeep Yadav for 84. The action is the same, just trying to be aggressive in the rhythm (about working on his bowling). The way we bowled in the first innings really set the game up. From the position we were in to get to 400+ was a job well done by the batters. There was some pace in the first innings, but the second innings was very challenging. Very pleased with the way we bowled in both the innings. PoTM: To be very honest I am happy with the performance, both with bat and ball. The way their openers batted, made it harder for us and we knew that we had to work hard for our wickets. It was important that we turned up and performed well in the Test series. It was a slow pitch, not much in the wicket for batters to get runs easily. With this win, India climb to the third spot on the WTC point table.
