After 42 overs,India 112/4 ( Rishabh Pant (W) 22 , Shreyas Iyer 10)

Back-to-back fours for Iyer. Short balls from Taskin but Iyer is ready for this. One is flat-batted down the ground, other is pulled to deep on the legside. There's an element of risk in going aggressive but that seems like the best option right now.

LUNCH!

India 86/3.

Excellent morning session for Bangladesh and Taijul Islam. The spinner has got all three wickets and Bangladesh have restricted India from scoring freely. India still trail by 141 runs. For India, the disappointing part is that the top three batters have not made it big despite getting starts.

After 36 overs,India 86/3 ( Virat Kohli 18 , Rishabh Pant (W) 12)

IND vs BAN Live

India go in Lunch after losing three wickets. It could have been five. Two chances came in last over before lunch. Mehidy got Pant to edge one to slip but Litton Das dropped it. There was also a run-out chance but Kohli was quick to return to the keeper's end after being sent back by non-striker Pant. Kohli was not happy with Pant's initial call for a quick single.

Pant gets a boundary to ease some pressure. Short ball from Mehidy and Pant blasts it to the mid-wicket. India need to keep scoring regularly, otherwise pressure will rise.

Chance! Kohli edged the delivery from Mehidy but it hit the keeper's pads and evaded the slip fielder. The ball stayed low and Kohli expected it to turn but it didn't and that outfoxed the batter.

After 31 overs,India 73/3 ( Virat Kohli 16 , Rishabh Pant (W) 1)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE Score

Taijul Islam is proving to be Bangladesh's trump card here. He was very good on the first Test as well. Pujara is the latest to fall. He went soft on the fuller ball but nudged it to the short leg who took an excellent catch. Rishabh Pant has joined Kohli in the middle now.

10:40 (IST)

OUT! Pujara c Mominul b Taijul Islam 24(55) 

Mominul takes a good catch at short leg and Pujara has to go. 

Excellent catching this. Pujara pushed the fuller ball to close-in fielder and Mominul pounced on that. Pujara didn't believe his luck. It got checked and third umpire gave it out.

After 29 overs,India 70/2 ( Cheteshwar Pujara 24 , Virat Kohli 14)

IND vs BAN Live Score

Another maiden over for Taijul. Pujara was on strike. Anjum Chopra on air is wondering why Shakib is not bowling more but it could be because Taijul offers the same. And with Mehidy they have extra variety. Bangladesh are hoping to use the rough areas.
