India lead by 51 runs. But more than the lead it is the overs and time they will be looking at.
16:35 Local Time, 11:05 GMT: India lead by 51 runs. But more than the lead it is the overs and time that they will have their eye on. 19 overs left in the day and I don't think we will get all of that, but there are 98 overs scheduled for tomorrow.

With that, India have declared! Sorry, Siraj. you won't get to smash some sixes here. That's 285 for 9 then, India lead by 52 here, and we discount the 10 minutes for innings break, they will have about 45 minutes to bowl today. Depends on them how many overs they can manage in that. Maybe 10? Who would have thought this morning what we were going to witness what we have just witnessed? Even a ray of sunshine felt like such a blessing after yesterday's disappointment. And now, after bowling out Bangladesh, India have hammered close to 300 runs in under 35 overs at over eight an over!
This session started with Pant holding out cheaply, that got Kohli and Rahul together and the pair curbed their natural game, went after the bowling and kept the scoreboard ticking. Kohli missed out on his fifty but Rahul got his off just 33 balls.
Who would have thought this morning what we were going to witness what we have just witnessed? Even a ray of sunshine felt like such a blessing after yesterday's disappointment. And now, after bowling out Bangladesh, India have hammered close to 300 runs in under 35 overs at over eight an over! Rohit Sharma set the tone like a true leader, along with Jaiswal, and India's famed line-up only had to follow their footsteps. Jaiswal hit some classy strokes, Kohli and Rahul peppered some boundaries with the occasional sixes and their strategy of getting quick runs for nearly three hours has worked so far. Now they want some wickets, will that happen too?
India lead by 52 runs. But more than the lead it is the overs and time that they will have their eye on. 19 overs left in the day and I don't think we will get all of that, but there are 98 overs scheduled for tomorrow. This session started with Pant holding out cheaply, that got Kohli and Rahul together and the pair curbed their natural game, went after the bowling and kept the scoreboard ticking. Kohli missed out on his fifty but Rahul got his off just 33 balls. They tried to up the ante further after the lead was taken and lost a few wickets in the process. Rohit was waiting for the appropriate time to declare but once Akash Deep fell, he called his batters in. India have around 45 minutes to make inroads into Bangladesh's top order. Which way would they go? Pace or spin? Back soon to find out..
