Bumrah from the other end. Mominul takes a quick single after defending a full ball to cover. Full on off to Shadman, defended solidly. Slightly wider line, Shadman prods forward and defends. Four!! Shadman drives a full ball straight down the ground for a boundary! Good positive start for Bangladesh.
BAN 31/2 in 12 overs
Ashwin starts. First one is down leg and the batter misses the sweep. A single to fine leg brings the first runs of the day. Four!! On the pads, Shadman flicks it through square leg for a boundary.
An exciting day in store....
Despite losing two and a half days to rain and outfield conditions, India has ensured that there is a still a possibility to get a result out of this game. A lead of 52 might not seem too much but it was enough to put pressure on the visiting batters late in the evening and R. Ashwin prized two wickets before the close of play to put India in a good position. The team will hope for some early scalps today to pin Bangladesh down.
A gritty knock from the the Tigers’ no:3!
