India vs Bangladesh: India were 339 for 6 at stumps on the first day of the first Test of two-match series being played between India and Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Ravichandran Ashwin scored his sixth test century and was batting on 102 while Ravindra Jadeja was unbeaten on 86 at the end of the first day of play. For Bangladesh, Hasan Mahmud took 4 wickets. Earlier, the visitors won the toss and opted to field.
India slipped to 34-3 inside the first hour of play in Chennai, then 144-6 in the second session before Ashwin, on 102, and Ravindra Jadeja, on 86, put on an unbeaten stand of 195 runs. Hasan had vindicated skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto’s decision to field first in overcast conditions, striking early with three wickets and taking one more after lunch.
The tourists, fresh from their 2-0 sweep in Pakistan, are looking for their first Test win against India. Chennai-born Ashwin and the left-handed Jadeja — India’s go-to spinners — blunted the Bangladesh bowling, to the delight of the home fans. “We always have a plan. We were relaxed in the dressing room when watching,” India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal told reporters. “I think initially the ball was moving and seaming a bit and the wicket was damp. We took our time. In the last session we scored quite well and are in a good position at the moment,” he added.
