Bangladesh decide to bat first after winning the toss at Mirpur...they forgot about the early movement of pitch...Zaheer and Ishant gave a steady start with quick wickets...they send half of bangladesh team to pavilion in 12 overs..
But India lost momentum once Mahmudullah came to the crease...The middle-order batsman, with the tail for company, hit an unbeaten 96 to lift Bangladesh beyond the 200-run mark with a solid display as Bangladesh - 127 for seven at one stage - finished 233 all out...
Ishant finished with four for 66 from 18 overs, while Zaheer had three for 62 from 19, the two seamers sharing the bulk of the wickets.
In reply, India's openers Virender Sehwag (41 not out) and Gautam Gambhir (26no) built a solid platform with an undefeated 69-run stand for the opening wicket in just 13 overs before play was brought to an early conclusion due to fading light...
Hope we will see some fire work in the 1st session...wait for tomorrow...
Cheers!
