Vineet Sharma/Zeecric.com Mirpur: India lost the plot somehow towards the end of the second day’s play, losing five wickets on an otherwise brilliant day for run-hunting. Registering 459/5 at stumps, the visitors lead by 226 runs owing to the superior batting performance by modern day cricket’s best technical batsmen, Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid. Tendulkar got out after scoring a sublime 143, his second consecutive Test century. He was claimed by Shakib Al Hasan due to a misplaced shot into the hands of Imrul Kayes. His wicket was followed up by the departure of Murali Vijay after toiling for his thirty runs. It was craftsmanship of the most elegant batsmen in the world on display as Tendulkar slammed his 45th Test century after the same had been done by the “Wall’ (29th ton) at the other end. Dravid however, was retired hurt after a nasty blow to his face. Rahul Dravid played the role of the anchor to the hilt, slamming a well crafted ton that took India to a commanding position in their first innings against a hapless looking Bangladesh who had themselves to blame, dropping both Sachin and Dravid early-on in their innings. Sachin gave nothing short of what is expected of him…sheer brilliance. The Master Crafter powered India past the 350-run mark, so as to earn his nation yet another victory if the bowlers matched the performance. Read More
