OVER 110 | Score 447/3 (Kohli 168, Rahane 79)

Partnership between Rahane and Kohli has gone past 200. India are literally mauling Bangladesh. Kohli racing towards another Double hundred, while Rahane will be elated to finally clinch a hundred.


OVER 105 | Score 430/3 (Kohli 155, Rahane 75)

Mehdi Hasan brought into the attack as Bangladesh stick to slow bowling in order to prevent India from proceeding at rapid run rate. Boundaries might no longer be coming but India look far from troubled!


OVER 100 | Score 411/3 (Kohli 151, Rahane 60)

India proceeding at a session run-rate of over 5. Virat Kohli brings up his 150 and Bangladesh seem clueless on how to stop the Indian run-machine. 200 on the cards for Indian skipper?

OVER 95 | Score 376/3 (Kohli 129, Rahane 47)

Bangladesh a bit too slack with the bowling on day 2 as Kohli deals in boundaries without much trouble. Rahane not getting much batting time and continues to wait for his half-century.


OVER 92 | Score 362/3 (Kohli 115, Rahane 47)

Bangladesh start Day 2 with Taskin Ahmed and Shakib Al Hasan, but Indians look comfortable dealing with the pace-spin combo.
