India vs Bangladesh: Pujara and Gill's tons and other top moments from Day 3 of Chattogram Test

Another day has passed in the first Test between India and Bangladesh at Chattogram, with the KL Rahul-led visitors taking another giant step towards collecting their first overseas victory in the format this year and going 1-0 up in the two-match series.

Much like the second day, the Indian team dominated Day 3 on Friday by quickly polishing off the rest of the Bangladeshi batting order before going past the 200-mark in quick time to set a mammoth target for the Bangla Tigers.

Rahul and Co will fancy their chances of bringing the contest at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium to an end on the penultimate day itself, given how Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj had made the Bangladeshi batters dance to their tunes on Day 2. The Tigers, however, will hope to emulate the fightback that they produced in the ODI leg of India’s tour, which they won 2-1, and salvage a draw or even go for a record chase in the remaining two days.

We now take a look at some of the key moments from the third day’s play:

Kuldeep completes his five-for

Kuldeep Yadav had been relegated to the sidelines as far as Test cricket is concerned, having not represented India in the format since February last year and making sporadic white-ball appearances since then, but the left-arm wrist spinner made a strong claim to getting a more permanent role in the Indian Test side with a superb four-wicket haul on Thursday, finishing the day with a haul of 4/33 which included the wickets of Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim.
