The morning session was in the name of Ravichandran Ashwin (58 runs in 113 balls, two fours, two sixes) and Kuldeep Yadav (40 runs in 114 balls). Both shared an 87-run partnership for eight wickets. Kuldeep played career best innings. The 28-year-old Kuldeep, who has scored a century and six half-centuries in first-class cricket, opened the account on the 18th ball but showed strong defence. He scored a lot of runs by playing slog and reverse sweep. Ashwin, who scored a total of five centuries including four against the West Indies, looked very focused during his 13th half-century. Playing ahead of 278 for six, India lost the wicket of Shreyas Iyer (86) in the eighth over, who was bowled by Ibadat Hossain (1 for 70). Iyer once again missed out on a century and could only add four runs to yesterday’s score.
