OUT! Yashasvi Jaiswal has departed in a bid to finish off the game but what a knock it has been. India on the cusp of victory, with three runs remaining!ย
India are not very far away from a win here, with just 31 runs required. Virat Kohli has joined forces with Yashasvi Jaiswal and both these players so far have rotated strike as well as hit the boundaries. Bangladesh need a dramatic turnaround, which looks very improbable at the moment. A first-class performance from India as they edge closer to a 2-0 series sweep.ย
OUT! Bangladesh and Mehidy Hasan Miraz have a second wicket with the off-spinner trapping Shubman Gill. The right-hander was struck on his pad and a DRS could not save him.ย Shubman Gill lbw b Mehidy Hasan Miraz 6(10)ย
OUT! India lose their first wicket and it is that of Rohit Sharma, who has to depart! The Indian captain had connected a sweep shot but he ended up hitting it straight to the fielder, with Hasan Mahmud taking the catch.ย Rohit Sharma c Hasan Mahmud b Mehidy Hasan Miraz 8(7)
The post-lunch session resumes! Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal are out in the middle and they have begun the run chase for the India national cricket team. Going by India's batting template in the first innings, this target is not too daunting and might not take a long time to be chased down. Rohit Sharma has come down the track to a delivery and made his intentions pretty clear!ย
OUT! Jasprit Bumrah has produced his magic once again as he castles Mushfiqur Rahim! The veteran batter went for an expansive shot on the last ball before lunch and lost his stumps. India now need 95 runs to win theย Test series 2-0.ย ย Mushfiqur Rahim b Jasprit Bumrah 37(63)ย
OUT!ย It is Jasprit Bumrah again, who strikes before lunch and Bangladesh are nine wickets down! Bumrah trapped Taijul Islam for a 13-ball duck and play has been extended by 30 minutes.ย Taijul Islam lbw b Jasprit Bumrah 0(13)
OUT! Some Jasprit Bumrah magic on show as he dismisses Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Bangladesh's last recognised batting pair has been separated and India are inching closer to bowling Bangladesh out!ย ย Mehidy Hasan Miraz c Rishabh Pant b Jasprit Bumrah 9(17)ย
OUT! What is happening here! The Bangladesh national cricket team is falling apart like a house of cards and Shakib Al Hasan is the latest man to be dismissed, with Ravindra Jadeja once again striking. Shakib Al Hasan handed a simple caught and bowled chance to Ravindra Jadeja and the latter obliged. India are all over Bangladesh now!ย Shakib Al Hasan c and b Ravindra Jadeja 0(2)
OUT! Another Bangladesh wicket falls and it is that of Litton Das, who had come out to bat few minutes ago. India have their sixth wicket with Litton Das being caught behind off the bowling of Ravindra Jadeja. Extra bounce did the trick for India here with the ball hitting the gloves en route to Rishabh Pant. India well and truly will believe that they can pull off a result here.ย Litton Das c Rishabh Pant bย Ravindra Jadeja 1(8)
OUT! India have a third wicket of the morning and this time, it is Akash Deep who has struck. Shadman Islam, just after reaching his fifty, slashed at a wide delivery and this time, Yashasvi Jaiswal took a good quick catch to complete the dismissal. What an effort from India cricket team and Akash Deep!ย Shadman Islam c Yashasvi Jaiswal b Akash Deep 50(101)
FIFTY for Shadman Islam! It has been a good knock from the opener, who had been given a reprieve by KL Rahul earlier on Day 4. It has been a good innings and he will look to continue and make it big.ย
OUT! Ravindra Jadeja has been introduced into the attack and he has struck instantly, getting the big wicket of Najmul Hossain Shanto! The Bangladesh national cricket team captain opted for a reverse-sweep but missed the ball completely which went on to hit the leg-stump. Najmul Hossain Shanto b Ravindra Jadeja 19(37)
Drinks! The partnership between Najmul Hossain Shanto and Shadman Islam is looking good for Bangladesh, with the two left-handers scoring runs at a brisk pace. India would need to break this partnership and have a few quick wickets in order to bounce back and keep alive hopes of a result.ย

Najmul Hossain Shanto, the Bangladesh captain has come out to bat alongside Shadman Islam. Mominul Haque's wicket was a big blow for Bangladesh and India would like to tighten the screws here. Both Najmul Hossain Shanto and Shadman Islam are showing signs of a fightback and we are in for a fascinating show.ย
OUT! India have their first wicket of the day and it is that of Mominul Haque, who scored a century in the first innings! Mominul Haque looked to sweep the ball but KL Rahul, placed at leg-slip ended up taking a sharp catch. What a wicket and what a great piece of captaincy by Rohit Sharma to have a leg-slip!ย ย Mominul Haque c KL Rahul b Ravi Ashwin 2(8)
Shadman Islam and Mominul Haque have resumed proceedings for Bangladesh here. The two will look to bat as long as possible, denying India a shot at victory. Just the one over has been bowled and Bangladesh's approach seems to be different to what it was yesterday towards the close of play.ย
