Najmul Hossain Shanto is gone! Bangladesh have lost both their openers within three balls. It was a length ball from Ravichandran Ashwin that turned into Shanto.

Even a review failed to save Shanto, who had to depart for a score of 24.

India vs Bangladesh Live: Lucky Shanto

BAN 21/0 (8.5)

Zakir Hasan is lucky once again! He gets an outside edge on the bowling of Mohammed Siraj but the ball went through the gap between the first slip and gully fielders for a four. 

BAN 13/0 (4.4)

BAN 6/0 (1.1)

India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!

A fuller ball from Mohammed Siraj and Shanto played an uppish drive on it for a four. It might not have come from the middle of his bat, but was placed well in the gap for a four. Zakir Hasan at the non-striker’s end just had to jump and give the ball a clean passage to go down the ground. 

BAN 4/0 (0.5)
