On Friday, young batsman Shubman Gill and his seasoned partner Cheteshwar
Pujara smashed centuries. As a result, India held a solid hold on the
opening Test of the two-match series against Bangladesh. Bangladesh’s
batting lineup consisted of openers Tamim Iqbal and Nazmul Islam. India
declared their second innings at 258/2, giving Bangladesh a massive mark of
513 runs to chase after Shubman scored his first century in a test match.
Pujara scored his 19th century during India’s second innings.
At the end of play on Day 3, the hosts were 42 without loss with Najmul
Hossain Shanto (25 not out) and Zakir Hasan (17 not off) at the crease. In
their first innings, the hosts were bowled out for a meagre score of 150.
The fourth day of the first test will be challenging for Bangladesh, as
they still need to score 471 runs to win.
