PREVIEW: India were in a spot of bother on the first day of the first Test against Bangladesh after getting reduced to 112/4 but Shreyas Iyer and Cheteshwar Pujara performed the resuce operation and provided the resistance. Pujara missed out on a well deserved ton while Iyer remained unbeaten at 82 as India ended the day’s proceedings at 278/6. India’s top order failed to deliver as Shubman Gill, KL Rahul and Virat Kohli were sent back in the hut in the first session. Later, it was Rishabh Pant (48) and Pujara who steadied the ship for the side before Pant also departed for 48, leaving India in a spot of bother. Pujara was then joined by Iyer and the two batters frustrated the Bangladesh bowlers and made some valuable contributions with the bat. Playing XI India: Shubman Gill, KL Rahul (c), Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (wk), Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Siraj Bangladesh: Zakir Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Litton Das, Shakib Al Hasan (c), Mushfiqur Rahim, Yasir Ali, Nurul Hasan (wk), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taijul Islam, Khaled Ahmed, Ebadot Hossain Read all the Latest News , Trending News , Cricket News , Bollywood News , India News and Entertainment News here.

India vs Bangladesh, 1st Test, Day 2 HIGHLIGHTS: India have thoroughly dominated the Bangladesh side as they reduced them to 133/8 on the second day
 "India vs Bangladesh 1st Test, Day 2 HIGHLIGHTS: BAN 133/8 at stumps, trail by 271 runs vs IND")
India are in front at the moment in this Test. Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj just rattled the Bangladesh batting line up. While Kuldeep scalped four on Day 2, Siraj had three to his name. That’s it from our end for today’s proceedings. Join us tomorrow for the LIVE COVERAGE of Day 3
India are in the driver’s seat as they have reduced Bangladesh to 133/8 in the first innings as the hosts still trail by 271
Kuldeep is on a roll here. He scalps his fourth. Once again, the spinner gives some flight on that fuller delivery and Taijul Islam chops it on to his stumps. He goes for 0
Bangladesh are in all sort of trouble now. Mushfiqur Rahim has been trapped in front by Kuldeep Yadav. He tosses that a bit as Rahim tries to defend it on the front foot but that hits his front pad. The on field umpire gives that out. Mushfiqur reviews that but the ball tracking shows that it would have hit the stumps
Bangladesh have suffered a massive batting collapse today. Kuldeep tosses one up to Nurul Hasan as he flicks it straight to Shubman Gill stationed at short leg. A good catch from Gill. Bangladesh are 6 down now
After 30 overs,Bangladesh 97/5 ( Mushfiqur Rahim 23 , Nurul Hasan (W) 16)
India vs Bangladesh
India have pushed Bangladesh totally on the back foot here. They have picked up five wickets already. The pacers have been ruthless
Siraj picks up his third wicket as Zakir Hasan is caught behind for 20 runs.

Now Kuldeep strikes and he has the big one. The spinner invites Shakib to step out as he just pulls the length a bit and turns it away from the left-hander. Shakib tries to negotiate that towards the on side but edges that straight to first slip
After 22 overs,Bangladesh 64/4 ( Mushfiqur Rahim 12 , Shakib Al Hasan (C) 2)
IND vs BAN
Bangladesh have been put under some pressure and Mushfiqur Rahim and Shakib Al Hasan need to get stitch a stand from here on
Siraj continues to pick wickets. He has his third. Bowls a length ball to Zakir Hasan, just outside off, shaping slightly away from the left-hander as he edges that one straight to Pant behind the stumps. Bangladesh are four down now
Width on offer from Siraj as he bowls that touch back of the length and Mushfiqur Rahim guides that between gully and first slip for a boundary
Another one bites the dust. Siraj has his second. The pacer bowls that full and straight as Litton Das tries to defend that on the front foot but it takes the bottom edge and goes on to hit the stumps. He is gone for 24
Litton Das and Zakir Hasan have resumed the proceedings for Bangladesh after Tea. The hosts are in a spot of bother after losing a couple of early wickets
Brilliant timing from Litton Das. He had already hit a couple of boundaries and has now followed them with another one. Umesh Yadav goes full, wide of off and Das drives that through the covers
Now Umesh Yadav strikes. Back of the length ball from the pacer, outside off, Yasir Ali just hangs his bat, gets the inside edge as the ball goes on to hit the leg stump. Bangladesh lose two now
#TeamIndia all out for 404 in the first innings.

Half-centuries for Cheteshwar Pujara (90), Shreyas Iyer (86) & Ashwin Ravi (58)👏 👏
Valuable 40s from Rishabh Pant (46) and Kuldeep Yadav (40)@mdsirajofficial into the attack gets a wicket on the first delivery.#BANvIND pic.twitter.com/4esaKrTtfi
What a start from Siraj. What a start from India. The pacer bags a wicket on the very first ball of the innings. That was full, quick, outside off as Shanto edges that back to the wicket-keeper. Pant dives to his left and takes a good catch
Mehidy Hasan picks his fourth as Siraj once again dances down the track to go for the big hit but miscues his stroke and is caught around long on for 4
Umesh Yadav takes on Mehidy Hasan. Goes for a slog sweep and dispatches the tossed up delivery out of the park for a maximum. That takes India’s score past 400-run mark
What a way to get off the mark. Taijul gives some flight on that one and Siraj comes down the pitch and hammers that over covers for a boundary
That’s two wickets in quick succession as Taijul Islam now traps Kuldeep Yadav in front for 40. The spinner bowls that straight as Kuldeep moves deep inside the crease to flick that one away to the leg but completely misses the ball and it hits his pads. The batter goes for the review after the on-field umpire gives that out but the ball tracking shows that it would have hit the stumps
Bangladesh finally have the breakthrough after Mehidy Hasan removes Ashwin for 58. The spinner bowls that touch quicker, outside off as Ashwin once again steps out to go for the big hit but misses the ball completely and is out stumped. A bit of a fumble there from the wicket-keeper but he does the job eventually
Kuldeep Yadav is showing his skills with the bat now. Taijul once again tosses it up, bowls that in the arc and Kuldeep slog sweeps that for a boundary towards the cow corner
FIFTY!

India vs Bangladesh LIVE SCORE
India end the first session on the second of this first Test at 348/7 with Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav still at the crease. The visitors will be eyeing a big total from here on
Kuldeep Yadav and R Ashwin have now brought up the 50-run partnership. What a brilliant display of batting this has been from these two
After 111 overs,India 320/7 ( Ravichandran Ashwin 28 , Kuldeep Yadav 10)
IND vs BAN LIVE
The Indian batters continue to frustrate Bangladesh bowling unit. Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav have chipped in with valuable runs here
Oh this is a good shot from Kuldeep. Second four for him. He first pulled a short one earlier to the fence towards the mid-wicket boundary and now goes for the reverse sweep on a tossed up delivery from Taijul Islam
After 105 overs,India 305/7 ( Ravichandran Ashwin 21 , Kuldeep Yadav 2)
India vs Bangladesh
India have gone past the 300-run mark despite losing Shreyas Iyer. Ashwin is playing a good role here
That’s the first wicket for Bangladesh in the day. Ebadot Hosain has castled Shreyas Iyer with a peach of a delivery. Bowls it touch fuller, on the off stump channel, breaches Iyer’s defence and cleans him up. Iyer goes for 86 as India lose seven now
Now that’s a good shot from Ashwin. Mehidy Hasan goes a bit fuller. Ashwin dances down the track and hammers it over long on for a maximum
Oh! That’s a dropped catch. Ebadot bowled it short and Iyer pulled that one but miscued his stroke and it went high up in the air. The fielder stationed at deep fine leg ran towards his left but didn’t judge the catch and dropped it
Look who has joined the side!
Hey @JUnadkat, welcome back to #TeamIndia! ☺️👏 pic.twitter.com/F5oF61dEGS

So the players are out in the middle. Iyer and R Ashwin will begin proceedings for India on Day 2 after Axar Patel was dismissed on the final ball of the first day
Shreyas Iyer has been in sublime form and has been scoring runs for India consistently. He has once again shown his class and is now 18 away from second Test hundred
