The Indian cricket team continued their dominance on Day 2 of the first Test against Bangladesh, posting a formidable lead of 308 runs. Ravichandran Ashwin, fresh from his century on Day 1, added another impressive knock of 113 runs to solidify India's position.
Despite Ravindra Jadeja's early dismissal, India's batting lineup showcased their strength. Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill remained unbeaten at the close of play, setting the stage for a potential early declaration on Day 3.
Ashwin's performance took India to 376 in the first innings. In response, Bangladesh were bowled out for 149 runs, courtesy of a four-wicket haul from Jasprit Bumrah. In the second innings, India lost openers Yashasvi Jaiswal (10) and Rohit Sharma (5) early. And Virat Kohli added 17 runs off 37 balls. Shubman Gill (33*) and Rishabh Pant (12*) remained unbeaten and will resume batting for India on Day 3.
Virat Kohli was seen informing Rohit Sharma that the camera was recording them. Hilarious moment caught on camera. During the first innings when Ashwin and Akash Deep were batting, the broadcasters caught a hilarious moment in the Indian dugout. Sitting behind head coach Gautam Gambhir, Rohit was caught playing a hilarious prank on Shubman, which ended with the Indian skipper hitting his teammate's jaw. Then Kohli could be seen informing Rohit it was being recorded on camera. In response, Rohit and the rest of the Indian camp were reeling with laughter.

After the final session, Jadeja called it a 'pretty good' batting pitch at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. "It's pretty good for batting but there's still something in the wicket for the fast bowlers. The odd ball was seaming, odd ball was swinging, it's not that easy for batters. If fast bowlers bend their back, they can take something out of the wicket," he said.
