India were 107 for no loss against Bangladesh at Lunch on Day One before rain interrupted and the play and the players had to go off. It seemed unlikely that the play will resume, but after a long wait it eventually started. Shikhar Dhawan was batting on an unbeaten half-century and Murali Vijay was looking solid at the other end.
