In the second Test at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur, India’s Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Jasprit Bumrah each claimed three wickets, bowling Bangladesh out for 146 runs in their third innings. India now needs 95 runs to win the match and secure a 2-0 series victory.

Day 4 was historic for Indian batters. They launched an aggressive assault, scoring 285 runs for 9 wickets before declaring their first innings. This came after India dismissed Bangladesh for just 235 runs. The Indian batters made headlines by setting records for the fastest 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 runs in Test history during their innings.

By the end of Day 4, Bangladesh had lost two wickets, primarily due to a brilliant double strike from Ashwin. As the last day began, India aimed to wrap up Bangladesh’s innings quickly and chase down what they hoped would be a manageable target. The Test had resumed on Day 4 after rain delayed play on Sunday, but the action picked up immediately thanks to Indian captain Rohit Sharma’s remarkable fielding.

In the fourth over, Bangladesh opener Litton Das attempted an ambitious shot, believing it would sail for a boundary. Suddenly, Rohit sprang into action, executing a stunning one-handed catch at mid-off. The crowd erupted as Litton stood in disbelief, unable to grasp how Rohit had pulled off such an extraordinary catch. Even Rohit was taken aback by the perfection of his leap, showcasing his exceptional athleticism and fielding skills.

This remarkable moment added another layer of excitement to an already thrilling Test series between India and Bangladesh. With the match entering its final stages, fans eagerly await to see if India can successfully chase the target and clinch the series. As the players take the field for the final innings, the atmosphere is charged with anticipation, marking a high point in the intense rivalry between the two teams.
