India Vs Bangladesh 1st Test Day 1 | As It Happened
After winning the coin toss, Najmul Hossain Shanto opted to bowl first and the visitors stunned the home crowd with an excellent start to the match, as Hasan Mahmud removed the star trio of skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Shubman Gill.
India were reeling at 34/3 in 9.2 overs, but Rishabh Pant and Yashasvi Jaiswal took the matter into their own hands and the pair notched up a partnership of 62 in 99 balls. However, Rishabh Pant's long-awaited Test return ended on an individual score of 39, as Hasan Mahmud picked up his fourth wicket.
Following the dismissal of Rishabh Pant, India stuttered again as KL Rahul too made his way back to the pavilion alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored an excellent 56 off 118 balls, as his resilient knock saw India out of trouble.
