On Day 2 of the first Test in Chennai, India was bowled out for 376 runs, led by Ravichandran Ashwin's century and Ravindra Jadeja's 86. Akash Deep made a significant impact by taking two wickets in consecutive balls, dismissing Zakir Hasan and Mominul Haque, as Bangladesh struggled at 26/3 at lunch. Deep's performance came after India had a shaky start, losing three early wickets, before a strong partnership between Ashwin and Jadeja steadied their innings. Bangladesh's Hasan Mahmud was the standout bowler, taking five wickets, while Jasprit Bumrah initiated India's bowling attack with an early wicket. The match saw a brief interruption due to Akash Deep being struck by a wayward throw, echoing a similar incident involving Rishabh Pant on Day 1. As Bangladesh resumes their innings, they face a daunting task to recover from a significant deficit.
