Live Cricket Score: Ind vs Ban, one-off Test, Day 5: R Ashwin dismisses skipper Mushfiqur Rahim for 23


Welcome to our live coverage of Day 5 action of the India-Bangladesh one-off Test being played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad.

Hello and welcome to Live cricket score and live updates from Day 5 of the one-off Test between India and Bangladesh being played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal. At stumps on Day 4, Bangladesh was 356-run behind the target while the hosts needed seven wickets to register a win.


Overs 53 | Score 162/5 | (Mahmudullah 40*, Sabbir 0*)

Ashwin was introduced in the 53rd over and he made an immediate impact by removing skipper Mushfiqur, who mistimed one by hitting it towards mid-off. Poor shot selection from the wicketkeeper-batsman considering the circumstances. Sabbir Rahman is the


Next batsman in. 56 runs were added for the fifth wicket. Bangladesh needs another partnership as they still trail by 297 runs.

Mushfiqur Rahim c Jadeja b Ashwin 23 (44b)

Overs 50 | Score 155/4 | (Mahmudullah 40*, Mushfiqur 17*)

Mahmudullah changed gears in the 50th over, where he hit Jadeja for two boundaries. The partnership for the fifth wicket is now worth 49 runs. Kohli would want one of his bowlers to break this partnership as soon as possible. The visitors still trail by 304 runs with 6 wickets remaining.

Overs 45 | Score 125/4 | (Mahmudullah 23*, Mushfiqur 5*)

Mahumudullah and Mushfiqur are batting very sensibly and are looking all set to stitch a decent stand for Bangla Tigers. The visitors are now looking to save the match and it remains to be seen whether these two can continue to tackle Indian spinners.

Overs 38 | Score 108/4 | (Mahmudullah 11*, Mushfiqur 0*)

Ravindra Jadeja began the proceedings for India and started with a disciplined line and length. He was rewarded in his second over of the day when a ball spun sharply into Shakib Al Hasan, who got some part of his bat and pad and was caught. Mushfiqur Rahim is the new man in. He scored a century in the first innings and his team needs the similar effort from their skipper even in the second innings.

What to expect on the final day:

A win for India.

Scoring more than 350 runs in India on the final day of a Test match is the lot tougher than taking seven wickets.

And India is presented with the easier option. For the uninitiated, just go through any cricket archives and check how India toyed with England in their last match in Chennai.

One thing that can go wrong for India is Bangladesh skipper Mushfiqur Rahim dropping the anchor once again. The diminutive batsman has all the shots and art to frustrate any bowling attack.

Yes, there is Shakib Al Hasan too, and so thus Mahmudullah and Mehedi Hasan. Mahmudullah, all of his batting talent, is due a big Test knock.

But again, India has Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja – probably the two most proven spinners who wreck havoc in opposing ranks, at least in India.

And they have 90 overs. It's the lot of overs.

So, all-in-all, it's India's match to lose.

By the way, India is looking for yet another win under Virat Kohli.

Day 4 Recap:

A dominant India remained in pursuit of a comprehensive victory after Bangladesh finished the penultimate day at a precarious 103 for three, chasing a mammoth target of 459.

Ajinkya Rahane's sharp one-handed catch off Ravindra Jadeja to dismiss a well-set Soumya Sarkar (42) put India in the driver's seat after the visitors looked comfortable during the post-tea session as they started their second innings.

Ashwin (2/34 in 16 overs), who completed the fastest 250 Test wickets, gave a better account of himself in the second innings by getting the turn and the drift. Being given the new ball helped him get some bounce off the pitch as well.

Seasoned Shakib Al Hasan (21 batting), along with Mahmudullah Riyadh (9 batting) and Mushfiqur Rahim, will need to bring their 'A' game to the fore in order to save the game.
