Bangladesh have ended Day Four at 111 for three after play was called off as the rain showed no signs of stopping. Bangladesh still trail India by 351 runs after India declared at their overnight score of 462 for six after centuries from Shikhar Dhawan and Murali Vijay put the visitors in control of the match. Ajinkya Rahane too scored a brilliant 98 to help India’s cause. Full updates: India vs Bangladesh 2015, one-off Test at Fatullah, Day 4
Bangladesh started off well with openers Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes. Tamim became Bangladesh’s leading run-getter in Tests during his innings of 21-ball 19. Kayes remained unbeaten on 59, he was however dropped by Dhawan on 10. Kayes built a 81-run stand with Mominul Haque, who was dismissed for 30 by Harbhajan, just when it seemed like he had settled in. Full Scorecard: India vs Bangladesh, one-off Test at Fatullah Day 4
Skipper Mushfiqur Rahim did not last long either as he was caught by Rohit Sharma at leg slip off the bowling of Ravichandran Ashwin at leg slip for just a couple of runs. Bangladesh were in a spot o bother just ahead of the lunch break when Shakib-Al-Hasan walked in. Rain, however played spoilsport again as the players had to off the field due to rain.
It seems highly unlikely that we will have a result on the final day of the Test but both teams will look to make the best of their opportunities if and when play resumes on Sunday.
Brief scores:
India 462 for 6 decl. (Murali Vijay 150, Shikhar Dhawan 173, Ajinkya Rahane 98; Shakib-Al-Hasan 4 for 105, Jubair Hossain 2 for 113) lead Bangladesh 111 for 3 (Imrul Kayes, Mominul Haque; Ravichandran Ashwin 2 for 30, Harbhajan Singh 1 for 23) by 351 runs.
