Gambhir chasing history, India past 100

Mirpur: Virender Sehwag was the first Indian wicket to fall on the second day’s morning. He was caught behind the wicket off Shahadat Hossain’s dug-in delivery at a score of 56 runs.

The Delhi blaster had started proceedings in his typical fashion, slamming his 21st Test fifty as India raced past the 100 run-mark. Gautam Gambhir, his wingman and the batsman chasing Don Bradman’s record, was solid at the other end.

The first Day of the second Test against Bangladesh had ended with India registering 69/0 at stumps after Mahmudullah was left stranded on 96 not out as the hosts were all-out for a paltry 233 in their first innings.
