As India's search for the 10th Bangladesh wicket reached the final ball of the extended first session, Jasprit Bumrah produced a stunning delivery that completely deceived Mushfiqur Rahim.

The Bangladesh batter was hoping to take a single in order to keep the strike when the second session begins but failed to read the slower one from Bumrah.

The delivery from India's marquee pacer went through the gap between Mushfiqur's bat and pad to uproot the middle stump. Courtesy of Bumrah's third wicket of the innings, Bangladesh were bowled out for 147.

India, after dismissing 2 Bangladesh batters before stumps on Day 4, did exceptionally well in bagging 8 Bangladesh wickets in the morning session on Day 5.
