Bangladesh is reeling on 78-5, till report writing, on the second day in reply to India's first innings' total of 376 during the first Test at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on September 20.

After a rapid start filled with boundaries, Shakib and Litton have now switched to a more defensive approach. Ashwin and Akash are bowling with precision, maintaining tight lines that leave the batters with little room to maneuver.

India were earlier bowled out for 376, adding just 37 runs to their overnight total of 339-6.

Fast bowler Hasan Mahmud claimed 5-83 to play a vital role in restricting India to a moderate total.

But another fast bowler Taskin Ahmed who snapped up 3-55, hastened India's downfall on the second day morning session.

As India looked set for 400 plus total and possibly thinking about 500 runs on the board, Taskin came up with a gem of pace bowling.

Taskin who didn't get any wicket on day one, started the party with the wicket of Ravindra Jadeja who failed to add any score to his overnight 86.

He thereafter removed Akash Deep for 17 before taking the prized scalp of Ravichandran Ashwin who finally was out on 113.

Hasan Mahmud who finished with four wickets on day one, finally completed his second straight five-for in Test cricket, dismissing Jasprit Bumrah for 7. Just earlier in the last Test innings against Pakistan, he had figures of 5-43.

Bumrah, however, broke through in the first over of Bangladesh's innings, rattling the stump of opener Shadman Islam for 2.

Skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto played with positive intent but Akash Deep swung the ball in both ways to trouble the batters.

He got the reward for his fine swing bowling display by getting rid of Zakir Hasan (3) and Mominul Haque for naught. Both of the batters were clean bowled, failing to deal with the swing and pace properly.
