Jasprit Bumrah’s arrival to bat at Chepauk marked his return to international cricket action for the first time since the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Bumrah was rested until the ongoing Test series, leading to his absence from India’s Tour of Sri Lanka. He headed into the Bangladesh series as the third-highest-ranked Test bowler in the world.
Bumrah couldn’t contribute much with the bat but did set the Chepauk ablaze with his fierce bowling show. India needed a fine beginning to sustain the momentum, and Bumrah provided it by dismissing Shadman Islam. The Bangladesh opener shouldered arms to a delivery, which was bowled to him from around the wicket, that cut back a bit, and the ball thudded on to the stumps.
Soon, Akash Deep added the scalps of Zakir Hasan (3) and Mominul Haque (0) in successive balls to push Bangladesh into a spot of bother, as both the batters fatally played the wrong line.
Earlier, the Indian innings lasted an hour and five minutes into the second day’s first session as the hosts lost the remaining four wickets while adding 37 runs to the overnight score. Jadeja, resuming at 86, was the first to go, falling to Taskin Ahmed after the visitors straightaway took the second new ball.
The left-hander suffered a momentary lapse of concentration and edged a regulation outside off-stump delivery to Litton Das behind the wicket. Ashwin, overnight 102, did not last long either, skying Ahmed to Shanto as the pacer finally managed to hit a better line.
