BAN vs IND, 1st Test, Day 3

Jan 19, 2010
Ishant Sharma bagged the first wicket of the day for India by getting Ashraful caught by Rahul Dravid at first slip.Skipper Shakib Al Hasan was the next to depart when his counterpart Virender Sehwag took an easy catch off Zaheer Khan to send him packing.
Sreesanth dismissed the sixth Bangladeshi wicket. Raquibul Hasan edged Sreesanth's delivery and was well caught by Dinesh Karthik behind the stumps.
Sachin Tendulkar's 44th century and the triple strikes by the pacers fueled India's fightback on a weather-hit second day against Bangladesh.
On a day of little action, foggy condition led to a delayed start while bad light dropped early curtains on the day's proceedings in the first Test.
In the 24.5 overs that could be played, India recovered some of the lost ground by posting 243 in their first innings before returning to claim three home side wickets to leave Bangladesh 59 for three at stumps.
Raqibul Hasan (1) and Mohammad Ashraful (0) were in the middle at stumps with the hosts trailing India by 184 runs with seven wickets in hand.Earlier, it was Tendulkar's masterly unbeaten 105 that guided India to a respectable 243 in their first innings.
Tendulkar's crafty unbeaten 166-ball knock included 11 hits to the fence besides a couple of six before he ran out of partners as India slumped to their lowest total against Bangladesh at the Zohur Ahmed Chowdhury Cricket Stadium.
