The first test match between India and Bangladesh kicked off today with India batting first against the visitors at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. As India batted first it saw a mixed batting performance as opener Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a 56 to give India a good start. All around Jaiswal, India witnessed a falling of wickets in quick succession as Indian captain Rohit Sharma departed for just six runs. He was followed by Virat Kohli who too was dismissed at six runs. Young Indian batter Shubhman Gill was dismissed for a duck. 

It seemed like a failure for India's batting order until Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja came to the rescue.
