IND vs BAN 1st Test Live Score: Jadeja-Ashwin dominate as India near 400

India had a shaky start in the first Test against Bangladesh, with captain Rohit Sharma departing early after scoring just 6 runs. Shubman Gill fell for a duck, and Virat Kohli followed soon after, contributing only 6 runs. Hasan Mahmud was the star for Bangladesh, grabbing four crucial wickets, putting India under significant pressure early on. Despite this, Yashasvi Jaiswal showed resilience with a well-played fifty, giving India some much-needed stability.

India, after being asked to bat first on a soft pitch by Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto, faced further blows as KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant were sent back to the pavilion in the second session. However, it was the partnership between Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin that turned things around for the hosts. The duo built an impressive partnership of 190 runs in just 215 balls, steering India close to the 400-run mark by the end of Day 1. Jadeja, in particular, unleashed some power hitting, smashing Mehidy Hasan for two consecutive sixes.

Both Ashwin and Jadeja completed their half-centuries in the final session, giving India a solid recovery. With India six wickets down, Bangladesh will be eager to grab a few more wickets early on Day 2 to keep the pressure on.
