Bangladesh could not. Nazmul Hossain Shantar’s team had to accept defeat against India by a big margin in the Chennai Test. Hosts India beat Bangladesh by 280 runs in the first Test of the two-match series.

All-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin is the key behind India’s victory. Shanto’s entire team’s performance is dimmed by his century and 5-wicket haul. In addition to scoring 113 runs with the bat in the first innings of the match, this experienced star also took 6 wickets with the ball in the second innings.

At the end of the third day, the loss of Bangladesh was written. However, with Shakib on the wicket, Bangladesh saw a glimmer of hope for the captain to remain calm. Shakib-Shant showed good things in attacking batting on the fourth morning as well. But the danger is tied by Shakib.

Shakib could not make use of life. The start of the batting collapse through his outs. Then Liton Das, Mehdi Hasan Miraj, Shanto, Taskin Ahmed went back one by one. That’s why Bangladesh accepted the defeat by losing 5 wickets with a gap of only 40 runs. Shanto played the highest innings of 82 runs for the team in the second innings.

Ashwin took maximum 6 wickets for India. Jadeja took 3 wickets. Jasprit Bumrah took a wicket.

After Shakib Al Hasan, Liton Das, Mehedi Hasan Miraj, Nazmul Hossain is back. Then Taskin Ahmed also left. From 194 for 4 wickets, Bangladesh became 228 for 9 wickets! India now need 1 more wicket to win.

Ashwin’s whirlwind in Chennai is a big defeat for Bangladesh

Nazmul returned with 82 runs
Bangladesh captain Nazmul was keeping the other end even though wickets fell one after another from one end. At last he too went back. He returned with a catch in Bumrah’s hands after scoring 82 runs off Jadeja.

Bangladesh lost the eighth wicket for 228 runs due to Nazmul’s dismissal.

Miraj is caught hitting Ashwin for a six
Bangladesh spent the first hour well. Scored 36 runs without losing any wicket. But Bangladesh lost the wicket in the first over after returning from the water break.

Ashwin came to bowl his first over on the fourth day and sent back Shakib Al Hasan with the fourth ball. Liton Das also returned with a catch at slip off Jadeja’s ball. Mehdi Hasan Miraj went now. Ashwin returned him.

Mirage blasted the Indian spinner down the wicket. The ball did not hit the bat. Mirage’s innings ended after being caught at long on. Bangladesh score 222 for 7 wickets in Mirage’s out.

After Shakib, Liton’s farewell, eye-popping defeat
When the procession of wickets starts, it does not want to stop, this has become the game of Bangladesh. Liton Das proved it by batting failure once again. Shakib Al Hasan’s departure an over ago, the team was looking at his bat. He also disappointed along the same lines.

Jadeja’s ball took a bit more turn. Litton lost the line while defending. The ball kisses the corner of the bat and is deposited in the hands of Rohit standing at first slip. The Indian skipper was jubilant after taking an easy catch. Litton scored 1 run. Nazmul’s partner at the crease is Miraj.

Shakib could not use his life
Shakib Al Hasab is trapped in the circle of ofform. This all-rounder is not able to use even when he gets a chance. After the first innings, he committed suicide in the second innings as well. He is picked up by Ashwin.

Rishabh Pant gave life to Shakib by missing the catch off Jadeja. But it was not used by the best star of the team. Shakib was trapped by Jaiswal who was caught short by another spinner Ashwin.

Shakib who got life on 17 runs can add only 8 more runs. He played an innings of 25 runs off 56 balls. Nazmul’s partner at the crease is Liton Das.

Shakib survived Panter’s mistake
Rishabh Pant gave life to Shakib. A great opportunity. The Bangladeshi all-rounder came to the wicket down on Jadeja’s ball. But the ball eluded him and went into Pant’s gloves. But the Indian keeper could not collect the ball in his gloves. By that time, Shakib also went inside the spot.

Shakib was then unbeaten on 17 runs. The left-hander hit Jadeja for four on the very next ball. Let’s see how far Shakib can go by using this opportunity in the hands of Pant.

Unfinished over completed Siraj
On the afternoon of the third day, the umpire declared the end of the day’s play with the last over unfinished due to lack of light. Mohammad Siraj could not finish his over. There were four balls left. On the fourth day, he finished the over by bowling the remaining four balls.

Bangladesh could not get any runs from these four balls. So far Bangladesh has collected 177 runs with the loss of 4 wickets. 338 runs behind.

The fourth day’s play begins
The 14th day of the Chennai Test has started. The day’s play ended a little early yesterday due to poor light. But today the game started right on time.

In front of Bangladesh today is the battle to save the match. However, the wicket of Chennai will speak for the pacers today. It is now waiting to be seen how the Bangladeshi batsmen will handle the Indian pacers under the cloudy sky.

Bangladesh will come into bat on the fourth day with 158 runs for 4 wickets from the previous day. Captain Nazmul Hossain is on the wicket with 51 runs. His partner Shakib Al Hasan’s run is 5.
