Monday turned out to be an entertaining affair for cricket fans all over the world. Despite losing more than two days of play due to rain and a wet outfield, India showed intent and tried to push for the result.

In 85 overs that were bowled in the entire day, a total of 437 runs were scored, and 18 wickets were scythed, summing up the actionpacked play that was on offer in Kanpur.

After India declared and managed to take a 52-run lead, Bangladesh openers Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam stepped up at the crease, looking to see off the day with minimum damage.

However, skipper Rohit Sharma didn't waste time and brought his ace spinner Ravichandran Ashwin straight into the attack. He immediately got his rewards by trapping Zakir in front of the stumps with a flighted delivery.

Bangladesh sent Hasan Mahmud as the nightwatchman with a couple of overs left. On his second delivery, he found the boundary rope with a half-volley, driving Bangladesh's score.
