Fri Sep 20 10:19:44 UTC 2024: ## India Dominates Day 2, Bowling Bangladesh Out for 149 in Chennai Test

**Chennai, India:** India continued their dominance in the first Test against Bangladesh, bowling out the visitors for a paltry 149 on Day 2 at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium. This followed their first innings total of 374, leaving them with a commanding lead of 225 runs.

Jasprit Bumrah was the star performer for the Indian bowlers, claiming four wickets, including a picture-perfect yorker that dismissed Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Mohammed Siraj and Ravindra Jadeja also chipped in with two wickets each, effectively dismantling the Bangladesh batting lineup.

Earlier in the day, Hasan Mahmud, the Bangladesh fast bowler, had become the first bowler from his country to claim a five-wicket haul on Indian soil. He achieved this feat by dismissing Jasprit Bumrah, who had been a thorn in the side for Bangladesh throughout the innings.

The day was a mixed bag for Bangladesh. While Mahmud’s five-wicket haul provided some early hope, the batting performance was a complete let-down. Litton Das (32) and Shakib Al Hasan (32) offered some resistance, but the rest of the batting order crumbled under pressure from the Indian bowlers.

India, on the other hand, looked confident and clinical. They will resume their second innings with a strong lead, giving them a significant advantage in this crucial Test match.

**Key Highlights:**

* India bowled Bangladesh out for 149, taking a 225-run lead.
* Jasprit Bumrah took four wickets, including a crucial yorker.
* Hasan Mahmud became the first Bangladesh bowler to take a five-wicket haul in India.
