STUMPS! A brilliant day of cricket as India finish on 278/6. Bangladesh made a dominant start taking three quick wickets and then removed aggressive Rishabh Pant to reduce India to 112/4 but Shreyas Iyer and Cheteshwar Pujara steadied India’s innings and put together 149 runs. Two wickets at the end should give Bangladesh some hope after they lost the momentum. Let’s hope for another good day of cricket tomorrow. We bid you farewell now. Join us tomorrow for Day 2 live blog.

Axar Patel is the new man in. There was an LBW appeal against him off Taijul Islam but it looked like going down. Three more overs to go in the day.
Replays show there was some bat on it and it was taken by short leg but as a review was not taken Bangladesh didn’t benefit and the umpire had no clue.
What a ball! The ball spins away, beating the bat and cleaning up Pujara. Good innings comes to an end.

Hint of swing for Khaled in the over. He had Pujara beaten on a length ball that shaped away. The pacer needs to stick to this line and make the India batters guess.
