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 Indian cricket team registered a new all-time record, becoming the first team in world cricket go past the 90 sixes mark in a single calendar year. India reached the landmark as Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal came out all guns blazing against Bangladesh on Day 4 of the second Test in Kanpur. The duo hit Bangladesh bowlers all around the park, as India broke England's record of scoring the most number of maximums in a calendar year in Tests. England had scored 89 sixes in 2022, before seeing that record being broken by India.
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.
The Indian cricket team on Monday put up a terrific batting display on the fourth day of the second Test against Bangladesh at Green Park stadium in Kanpur. With the second and third day of play getting completely washed out due to rain, India needed an out-of-the-box performance to take the game to a point that it could yield a result. The hosts first bundled out Bangladesh at the score of 233 and then boasted of a powerful batting attack. The Rohit Sharma-led side posted 285 for 9 in 34.4 overs and then declared the innings with a lead of 52 runs.
Indian batters Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant were involved in a terrible mix-up during running on Day 4 of the second Test vs Bangladesh in Kanpur, but the good thing for the hosts was that no one got out and it all ended up with a smile. It happened on the first legal delivery of the 19th over of India's innings. Bangladesh pacer Khaled Ahmed bowled a good length delivery outside off stump to Kohli. The India batter got a big inside edge on the ball while going for a drive. The ball hit Kohli's body and got further slowed down. Spotting an opportunity, the batter decided to take a quick single.
Virat Kohli's old video of 5 designated Test centres resurfaced on social media as the second Test between India and Bangladesh in Kanpur witnessed lack of action due to a damp outfield, especially on Day 3. Despite the venue not witnessing any rain on Sunday, not a single over could be possible because of the soft outfield. As frustrations grew among players and fans, Kohli's old video highlighting how India should only have 5 world-class venues for Test matches went viral. Even former India wicket-keeper batter Dinesh Karthik spoke about the topic after the end of Day 3.
Ravindra Jadeja is a complete package who can create magic on the field, India's bowling coach Morke Morkel gushed on Monday, extolling the incredible skills of the all-rounder who achieved the double of 300 Test wickets and 3000 runs. Jadeja became the second fastest to achieve the milestone, reaching there in 74 Tests, two more than England great Ian Botham. The 35-year-old entered the 300-wicket club when he dismissed Bangladesh's Hasan Mahmud on the fourth day of the rain-hit second Test in Kanpur.
Former Indian cricket team selector Saba Karim believes that Rinku Singh will be a good option to open the batting for India along with Abhishek Sharma in the upcoming T20I series against Bangladesh. In a recent interaction, Karim explained that Rinku does not get much time to show off his talent and his aggressive playing style will complete Abhishek. Rinku typically bats at No. 6 or 7 for India but Karim added that he should face more balls in order to add more value to the team.
