Team India Go Back To The Hotel

With conditions far from being fit enough for play at the moment, it is being learnt that Team India have gone back to their hotel. Notably, only 35 overs of action was possible on the opening day of the IND vs BAN 2nd Test. India won the toss and elected to field first for the first time in nine years in a home Test after a delay in the start because of a wet outfield due to overnight rain.

Akash Deep then scalped two wickets in the first session for Team India, removing both the Bangladesh openers. Ravichandran Ashwin got rid of the Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto for 31 shortly after which play was stopped due to bad light. There was downpour that followed forcing the umpires to call early stumps with the Bangladesh scoreboard reading 107/3 with Mominul Haque (40*) and Mushfique Rahim (6*) out in the middle.
