India vs Bangladesh, 2nd Test Day 5 Live Updates: Producing a result will be in the mind of the Indian cricket team when it will resume the bowling in the ongoing second and final Test against Bangladesh on Tuesday. The second and third day of the Kanpur Test got washed out due to rain, but India did an incredible job with the bat and ball on Day 4 to keep the match alive for a result.
On a brilliant day for Team India in the field, Mohammed Siraj grabbed a brilliant one-handed catch. With India up against Bangladesh on Day 4 of the second Test in Kanpur, the only objective set was claiming quick wickets. It was Jasprit Bumrah who bagged the first wicket for the team on the day, sending Mushfiqur Rahim packing before Mohammed Siraj struck to dismiss Litton Das, thanks to a brilliant catch by Rohit Sharma. Probably inspired by Rohit's effort, Siraj then produced a one-handed stunner himself as Ravichandran Ashwin sent Shakib al Hasan packing.
As the Indian Premier League (IPL) Governing Council releases its guidelines of player retention, experts have started to share opinions on the players franchises should decide to keep ahead of the mega auction. With as many as 6 players allowed by the BCCI, including Right-To-Match, some tough decisions are expected to unfold in the coming days. For Mumbai Indians, the future of former skipper Rohit Sharma is arguably the biggest talking point. But, former India batter Aakash Chopra feels MI also needs to take a big call on current captain Hardik Pandya.
The man who steps up whenever India are in need of a wicket, Jasprit Bumrah delivered his team the first wicket on Day 4 of the second Test against Bangladesh in Kanpur on Monday. The match resumed after the second and third day's play was completely washed out due to rain and wet outfield, and India captain Rohit Sharma put the ball in the hands of Bumrah to give team the 4th Bangladesh wicket. Burmah didn't have to wait for long to draw the first blood, removing Mushfiqur Rahim on the third over of the day.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 auction guidelines are out, with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) opening the gate for franchises to retain a maximum of 6 players each. While the 10 franchises would take a few days to chart out their plans, auction strategies and decide which players they wish to retain, fans and former cricketers have started to share their inputs on the matter. Former India cricketer Ajay Jadeja feels Mumbai Indians shouldn't retain skipper Hardik Pandya. Rather, should try to get him using RTM in the auction.
India vs Bangladesh LIVE Score: Day 2 of the second Test between India and Bangladesh was washed out entirely without a single ball bowled at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur. With Bangladesh in a precarious position, they would have hoped to build on Mominul's resilient knock, but the weather frustrated both teams. The forecast for the remaining days is not encouraging either, with more rain expected on Day 3. The weather has raised concerns about whether there will be enough play to force a result. This could be a huge blow for Bangladesh as they already trail 0-1 in the two-match series. (Live Scorecard)
All-rounder Glenn Maxwell feels that Australia's success in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy is directly linked with how their batters negate the ace Indian spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. India are eyeing their third successive series triumph in the Antipodean nation after etching epochal victories during the 2018-19 and 2020-21 tours. In fact, India remain the only Asian nation to beat the Australia at their home in a Test series. Maxwell said Ashwin and Jadeja have often dictated the course of the game. "I think that over a long period of time, having played against guys like Ashwin and Jadeja, those two seem to have always been the ones we've faced consistently, and the battles we've had with them have often dictated the outcome of the game," Maxwell told Star Sports.
Team India assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate couldn't control his laughter after Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja were seen imitating pacer Jasprit Bumrah's bowling action in front of him. The incident took place after India captain Rohit Sharma opted to bowl in the second Test against Bangladesh on Friday. Before the start of the play, Ten Doeschate, the former Netherlands batter, had joined the players for the pre-match warm-up routine. However, he was reduced to splits after seeing Kohli and Jadeja's antics.
