- 16:14 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: WICKET!Axar Patel has been dismissed by Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Azar has reviewed it, but the decision will stay as the ball tracking found that it could have clipped the leg stump. India's review is saved but not Axar. He falls for 14 runs off 26 balls and that is the stumps on Day 1.IND 278/6 (90)
- 16:09 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!Runs are coming quite easily for India. It seems that the wicket of Cheteshwar Pujara has not helped Bangladesh in controlling India's scoring rate. Axar is looking good at the crease, this time he has hit the ball straight down the ground for a four.IND 278/5 (89.1)
- 16:02 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!Axar Patel finally manages to pierce the gap between the cover and short extra-cover fielders. It was bowled fuller from Ebadat Hossain and Axar brought a fine cover drive for a four. The cover fielder did give it a run but the ball had enough legs to beat him.IND 270/5 (87.4)
- 15:47 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: WICKET!Taijul Islam has cleaned up Cheteshwar Pujara! That is an absolute beauty from the left-arm spinner to break the defence of Pujara. It was bowled around the good length area and spun so much that even missed the outside edge of Pujara's bat. However, the ball hit his off stump. Pujara departs for 90 runs off 203 balls.IND 261/5 (84.2)
- 15:46 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Bizarre incident!Shreyas Iyer can call himself extremely lucky as he was gone for all the money, but his luck sees him survive. A good length ball from Edbadat Hossain stayed low and passed the defence of Iyer and hit the stumps. For a moment, all the Bangladesh players erupted in joy but all that was spoiled as the bails did not go off.IND 259/4 (83.5)
- 15:24 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR! 250 up for India!A short ball from Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Shreyas Iyer punishes him with a four on the off side. The right-handed batter rocked back and hit the ball towards the deep point region for a four. The boundary takes him to 72.IND 250/4 (79.3)
- 15:14 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Catch dropped!Oh, no, Ebadat Hossain, what have you done there? Mehidy Hasan Miraz almost got his man as he had almost trapped Shreyas Iyer at deep mid-wicket, all Ebadat needed was to take the easy catch and complete the formality. Guess what? He dropped it to see Iyer survive at a score of 66.IND 236/4 (75.4)
- 15:10 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!Taijul Islam gave a bit of flight on the ball and Cheteshwar Pujara was quick to dance down the track and hit it for a four in front of square leg. The fielder did give it a chase but Pujara's flick shot had enough power to see the ball travel to the boundary rope for a four.IND 236/4 (74.5)
- 14:45 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!Shreyas Iyer comes down the track and hits Taijul Islam for a four. It was a lofted shot from Iyer that went wide of mid-on. The ball is still doing its bit but the the duo of Iyer and Cheteswar Pujara are set at the crease and therefore finding it a bit easy to score runs.IND 216/4 (68)
- 14:29 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Fifty for Shreyas Iyer!A four on the leg side and there is the fifty for Shreyas Iyer. That's the fourth Test half-century for Iyer in his sixth match.

- 14:18 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Fifty for Cheteshwar Pujara!Cheteshwar Pujara races to his fifty with a boundary on the off side and then smashes another four on the very next ball.

- 13:46 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Tea!Cheteshwar Pujara and Shreyas Iyer have added 62 runs so far for the fifth wicket to help India regain control in this game.

- 13:06 (IST)
- 12:56 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Expensive over!Mehidy Hasan Miraz has leaked 10 runs in his 9th over. Shreyas Iyer hit two boundaries in it. He danced down the track to hit a four at long-on before playing a cut short for another four in the over. Considering the low-bounce nature of this wicket, Iyer seems to be a suitable batter.IND 144/4 (42)
- 12:52 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!Cheteshwar Pujara has hit a beautiful shot from the backfoot for a four. It was a short ball from Khaled Ahmed on a good height outside off stump but Pujara adjusted on the bounce beautifully to hit it past the point fielder for a boundary.IND 134/4 (40.5)

- 12:36 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Bangladesh in control!Bangladesh spinners have made run scoring tough for India since the departure of Rishabh Pant.

- 12:08 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: WICKET!Rishabh Pant is out! That's an unlucky dismissal for the southpaw he has played the ball on his stumps.

- 11:59 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!A boundary from Rishabh Pant and India have raced to 100 runs at the loss of three wickets against Bangladesh.

- 11:49 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Catch dropped!Oh, there was a chance for Bangladesh to pile misery on India but Nurul Hasan has failed to grab the opportunity.

- 11:08 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: It's lunch time!That'll be the Lunch on Day 1 of the ongoing first Test match between India and Bangladesh.

- 10:54 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR, SIX from Pant!Rishabh Pant is taking his chances to unsettle the bowler Taijul Islam who has taken two wickets in the match so far.

- 10:44 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!A poor short ball from Taijul Islam and Rishabh Pant has pulled it for a four. This is one of the biggest strengths of Pant that he never misses out on any scoring opportunity. This is something that makes him special in Test cricket.IND 54/3 (21.1)
- 10:35 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: WICKET!This is a big-big wicket for Bangladesh and Taijul Islam is on top of the moon. He has bowled a beauty to trap Virat Kohli plumb in front of the stumps.

- 10:21 (IST)
- 10:02 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: WICKET!Taijul Islam has provided Bangladesh the first breakthrough of the game! It is Shubman Gill who will have to depart for a score of 20.

- 09:31 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: Back-to-back FOURS!Two short balls from Ebadat Hossain and Shubman Gill punishes him with two boundaries.

- 09:26 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!A short ball from Shakib Al Hasan and KL Rahul played it beautifully from the backfoot to hit it for a four. This is easy batting for India. Bangladesh need to try out something out of the box in case to wish to dent India's start here.IND 19/0 (5.2)
- 09:22 (IST)
- 09:17 (IST)India vs Bangladesh Live: FOUR!A lot of width of offer from Khaled Ahmed and KL Rahul leaps on it. He slashed it hard to hit it for a four from the gully region. No real threat from Bangladesh bowlers so far in this innings and both Rahul and Gill are playing comfortably.IND 11/0 (3.1)
