Ebadot strayed on the pads in the first over and KL Rahul flicked it to the fine leg fence for his first boundary of the match. The second slip moves to leg gully for Khaled, who goes full and wide of off first ball, only for Rahul to slash it wide of gully for four.

He teases Rahul with a slightly wide ball, Rahul falls for the trap and watches his stumps in disarray. Squares him up and hits him in front of the stumps. Pujara got a reprieve on the second ball after lunch off the bowling of Ebadot. Off the fourth ball of the 37th, Shreyas Iyer drove Ebadot Hossain through off-side and took off for a single. Iyer has 8 off 23 balls and that includes the boundary off the outside edge he got off the first ball.

India vs Bangladesh 1st Test Day 1 Live Score: Shubman Gill and KL Rahul added 41 runs for the opening wicket after India won the toss and opted to bat.
India have played only a handful of Tests this year and the outcome has not been an ideal one. Rohit Sharma, who was initially part of the series, was sent back to India after he injured his thumb. Taijul Islam bowls it quick in the air, as Pujara bends and plays the ball with soft hands. He was seen doing the same in the opening session. He then craftily guides a back of a length ball for a boundary towards the third man region. India will look to add at least 100-125 runs in the remaining time, and hope they don't lose too many wickets in the process. Ebadot Hossain pitches it up and wide and Shreyas Iyer drives it towards the cover for a boundary. He plays a pitched up delivery in the gap on the onside, which results in four. Shreyas Iyer charges down the track against Mehidy Hasan and goes for the aerial route. Now Pujara gets innovative as he shuffles in the crease and plays a late sweep behind the wicketkeeper for a boundary against Mehidy. He cuts it in the gap between the fielders as the shots races to the fence. Catch Highlights of India vs Bangladesh (IND vs BAN) 1st Test Day 1.

Bangladesh reduced their opponents to 48/3 in the opening session of the Test, but fifties from Pujara, Iyer and Ashwin bailed them out of trouble to post a total in excess of 400. Shakib went after the Indian bowlers and hit a flurry of boundaries but he was eventually castled by Kuldeep Yadav for 84. The action is the same, just trying to be aggressive in the rhythm (about working on his bowling). The way we bowled in the first innings really set the game up. From the position we were in to get to 400+ was a job well done by the batters. There was some pace in the first innings, but the second innings was very challenging. Very pleased with the way we bowled in both the innings. PoTM: To be very honest I am happy with the performance, both with bat and ball. The way their openers batted, made it harder for us and we knew that we had to work hard for our wickets. It was important that we turned up and performed well in the Test series. It was a slow pitch, not much in the wicket for batters to get runs easily. With this win, India climb to the third spot on the WTC point table.
Cheteshwar Pujara produced a masterclass knock against Bangladesh on the first day of the opening match as he scored 90 runs off 203 deliveries.
Pujara then went on to state what he believes was a good score on this wicket by adding, "If we would have ended the day at 4 or even 5 wickets, things would have been better. "Looks like there will be a result and we needed runs on the board. My partnership with Shreyas was important and also with Rishabh as there was a time when we had lost three wickets," added the 35-year-old. The 34-year-old said he was content with his performance as it was not an easy pitch to bat on. The 34-year-old along with Shreyas Iyer (82) added 149 runs for the fifth wicket, with India ending the day on 278 runs for the loss of six wickets. This knock by Cheteshwar Pujara confirms that He will play his 100th Test match in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
