IND vs BAN 1st Test: Cricket is for all ages and there are no second thoughts about it. The sport binds the entire nation like nothing else and it only takes a bunch of 11 Indian men to go out on the field and platy for India. India are taking on Bangladesh in the first Test of this two-match series. The match is being played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai.

R. Ashwin's Gritty Fifty Brings Smile To The Face Of An Elderly Lady

Bangladesh were miles ahead of India before the third session of the Day 1 of IND vs BAN 1st Test. At one point in time, India were reeling on 34/3 with the big guns such as Virat Kohli , Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill back in the dressing room. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant tried to stage a rescue act, but they also couldn't bat for much longer.

Much to Bangladesh 's misfortune, just when they had a feeling that they were ahead in the game, the duo of   Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja effectuated a twist in the tale. India were struggling to cross the 200 run mark at one point in time, but Ashwin and Jadeja defied all odds and staged a fightback that will be remembered for ages to come.
