Play on Day 1 of the second Test between India and Bangladesh was cut short to just 35 overs as heavy downpour signalled an early end to play.
However, in those 35 overs, India had managed just to pick up just three Bangladesh wickets. Interestingly, India captain Rohit Sharma did not hand the ball to Ravindra Jadeja even once during Day 1, although he gave Ravichandran Ashwin nine overs.
Former cricketer - now a reputed commentator - Sanjay Manjrekar pointed out a key statistic, urging Jadeja be given the ball.
With Bangladesh having five left-handed batters in their top six, the choice to hand Ashwin more overs wasn't a surprise. The overcast and damp conditions also play more into the hands of seamers.
