What's new

India [493/6d] beat Bangladesh [150 & 213] by an inns and 130 runs in the 1st Test, lead series 1-0

If he was just a player, kohli would have got nowhere close to that slip cordon. :rabada2
 
Kohli should be standing anywhere but not in slips,He is worst slip catcher I have ever seen.

He has taken some blinders as well, especially the one he took of Kock in our WC game against SA. However I agree, he drops way too many in slips and should not be anywhere near slips.

I will never forgive him for dropping McCullum and McCullum went on to score triple hundred.
 
I think for Bangladesh to have any chance in this test, first innings score should be above 350. However anything above 250 against the number 1 side in the world, in their own backyard should be considered pretty good effort, considering what bangladesh cricket is just coming out from
 
Bangladesh needs to get a partnership going, they need to bat deep here in first innings to create any pressure.
 
Indians bowled superbly all morning and now. SA would have been 6 down lol. Mominul showed lot of composure.
 
half a day gone. Very pathetic fielding by India. Good bowling. Also bowling rotatin is odd. 40 overs gone Still no jadeja.
 
Never seen such a pathetic fielding from India on day 1 in a long time. i am talking about 20 plus years. 3 dropped catches in a row by Rahane all of Ashwin. Then Kohli dropped one.
 
If not for dropped catches, BD would've been closed to being all out by now.
 
Great delivery by Shami even though it was played on by Mushi....
 
Would there be 4th hattrick this year in all forms of cricket by an Indian bowler?
 
Red hot stuff from Shami. Such skillful bowling.

Phenomenal bowling by shami and well applauded by his captain but I think kohli seriously doesn’t like Ashwin one bit cause ashwin has bowled beautifully and kohli isn’t even acknowledging him at all
 
Frankly, BD have been very poor. Despite India dropping so many, they're already 7 down.

Kohli even gave up his first class seat to fast bowlers lol He always treats them with special care. Spin not so much.
 
They were so lucky not to lose more wickets. Aside from dropping catches, amount of times they got beaten, ball got very close to finding the edge was really high. Mahamdullah played a strange innings. Played nervously like a debutant. He is better than that.
 
Shami is the.most improved cricketer of the last 2 years he was good but inconsistent but he has been relentless in last 2 years in top 5 test pacers in the world.
 
Team hatrick. Ishant rewarded. What a spell he bowled. Should have got a fifer with the kind of spell he bowled. Picked up his second wicket.
 
9 down now.

Run out at this stage of their innings, doesn't paint a good picture for BD...
 
Poor poor display from Bangladesh on a beautiful batting surface.
Long way to go
 
Great delivery by Umesh.

Wickets being shared amongst various bowlers is such a great sight...
 
Provided we do well in this test from here on, what'll be the new excuse for haters, now that we lost the toss as well?

BD were poor?
 
Seriously good bowling from all 4 bowlers. So 150 is sort of an achievement inspite of those drops.
I know. Indian bowling is seriously good everywhere, not just in India. Still a poor poor effort from BD considering all the largesse on our part.
 
Lol can't believe Bangladesh management actually thought it would be good to bat first on such bowling friendly conditions.

Rule of thumb is, let both teams bat at least once before announcing the nature of wicket....
 
Honestly 4 of our bowlers deserved five wicket haul today, that is how good they were. Ashwin was unlucky with so many drops, seriously our slip catching is scaring me right now with 2 difficult overseas assignments next year.
 
BD bowlers need to pitch the ball up to extract something with the new ball. Bowling short and Mayank will bat whole day.

Bangladesh bowling lineup of today's game will take atleast 6 sessions to bowl out India..fast bowlers who didn't even played 10 test matches and 2 spinners likely ineffective against this Indian lineup..centuries up for grab for both Indian batsmen and Bangladesh bowlers...
 
Our bowling is so much better than batting in test matches. Every pace bowler looks threatening under Kohli...
 
What is the reason for India to play full strength team against such a weak opponent? Kohli should have stayed back home. This was the perfect oppurtunity to try Shubhman Gill.
