Despite rain washing out over days' play, India defeated Bangladesh with a session left in the second Test on Friday. With the victory, India clean sweeped the Test series 2-0. At the start of Day 5, Bangladesh were 26/2. But they collapsed spectacularly, losing four wickets for just three runs at one point of time. They took a slender 94-run lead but India chased down the target with ease.
