India vs Bangladesh, Pink Ball Test, Day 3: India beat Bangladesh in Kolkata to clinch series 2-0

Right then, it appears to be a matter of minutes on Sunday. Although as Rahane said in his post-match interview, cricket is a funny game and anything can happen. Keeping that in mind, we would not get too ahead of ourselves. Do join us at 1300 local (0730 GMT) for all the action. Cheers!

Yet another exciting day of Test cricket comes to a close. India inch closer to 2-0 and are just four wickets away from achieving it. Earlier in the day, their skipper notched up a fabulous century and entertained the crowd with his sumptuous shots. Later on, batting got tougher during the twilight period and at one stage they lost wickets in clumps. However, all that happened after they were on safer shores. Post that, Ishant Sharma bowled with a lot of fire and venom and along with Umesh Yadav decimated the Bangladeshi batting yet again. Sharma has now taken 9 wickets in the match and would be eyeing his second 10-wicket haul in Tests on Day 3.

Ajinkya Rahane is up for an interview. Says that it's been wonderful and he is glad to be a part of this historic Test match. Adds that once the lights are on, it becomes challenging for the batsmen and feels that the first session is best for batting as there isn't a lot of lateral movement. Tells that the twilight period has always been challenging and it becomes slightly easier in the third session due to the dew setting in. Mentions that as a batting unit you try to play positive cricket and then cash in later on. States that he is enjoying watching the pacers bowl from gully, both with the red ball and the pink one. On his dropped catches, Rahane replies that he has to take it in a positive way as it happens in cricket and attitude matters a lot after dropping a catch. Feels that they still have to come hard at Bangladesh and not look too far ahead as cricket is a funny game.

Bangladesh fought bravely in this session but they were already shot on the foot early on with the wickets of Mohammad Mithun and Imrul Kayes. Mushfiqur Rahim has led the charge with a fine knock and his partnership with Mahmudullah would have given some relief and sense of respect to the dressing room. They somewhat recovered from 13/4 but then the injury to Mahmudullah cut short their brief resistance. Still, it was a session full of runs as the touring party scored 145 runs in it at a brisk pace. Had their top order shown some resilience and skill, Bangladesh could have been in a fighting position heading into Day 3.

U Yadav to T Islam, OUT! The short delivery has finally consumed Taijul Islam. He never looked comfortable against the short pitched deliveries. Yadav sensed that and bangs it in around off. Taijul goes on his toes to fend at it but it takes the shoulder of his bat and flies to gully. Rahane takes a catch and will be relieved. With that it will also be STUMPS ON DAY 2!

U Yadav to Islam, HIT ON THE GLOVES AGAIN! Umesh digs in a short ball around off, Taijul tries to duck but with his eyes closed and gloves in front of his face. It hits him on the gloves and drops in front of Rahane at gully. Lucky escape.

U Yadav to Islam, A touch short in length and outside off, Taijul plays it from the back foot but finds the point fielder.

Umesh Yadav is brought back into the attack. This in all likelihood will be the last over of the day.

M Shami to Rahim, In the channel outside off, on a good length, Rahim has allowed it to the keeper.

M Shami to Rahim, Sliding down the leg side, Rahim tries flicking but misses.

M Shami to Islam, A well-directed bouncer by Shami, it's around middle and leg. Taijul is hurried up and fends it away hurriedly. The ball runs down to fine leg and they cross.

M Shami to Islam, Angles in a length ball on off, Taijul forces it through the line but finds the cover fielder.

M Shami to Islam, Play and a miss! Shami delivers a short ball wide outside off, Taijul throws his bat at it and misses.

M Shami to Islam, Chooses to leave the ball outside his off stump.

Mohammed Shami is back on.

R Ashwin to Rahim, Quicker and flatter on off, defended off the back foot.

R Ashwin to Rahim, NOT OUT! Rahim has gloved it! Flighted ball landing full around off, the batsman attempts to sweep but fails to middle his shot. As soon as it hits him on the pads, the Indians appeal and umpire Erasmus lifts his finger. Rahim though is very confident and takes the referral. The replays roll in and they show that before hitting the pads, the ball had brushed the gloves. Rahim stays.
