In the Kanpur Test, Team India defeated Bangladesh by 7 wickets and captured the Test series 2-0. Fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah, R. Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja took three wickets each and reduced Bangladesh's second innings to 146 runs. In this way, India got the target of 95 runs, which the team achieved by losing three wickets. Although many players were the heroes of this special victory of India, but it was only captain Rohit Sharma, whose one decision completely turned the match in India's favor.
Bangladesh team was out for just 233 runs.
With only 35 overs played due to rain on the first three days of the match, it looked as if the match would definitely be a draw. But when the fourth day's play started, Rohit came up with a different idea. First of all he unleashed his bowlers and restricted Bangladesh to just 233 runs. Bangladesh team, which played 35 overs on the first day, could not even play 40 overs and was all out in 74.2 overs. Thus the first innings ended on the fourth day.
Rohit made his intentions clear from the very first ball
After this came the turn of Team India, where captain Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal came up with a different idea. Both the batsmen made it clear with their batting that the team is going to play in T-20 style here. Here Yashasvi hit three fours in the very first over of Hasan Mahmood. After this came Rohit's turn, where he welcomed Khalid Ahmed with two consecutive sixes. Meanwhile, Rohit became the fourth batsman in the history of Test cricket to start his innings with two consecutive sixes.
India made records
Both the batsmen continued to bat fast, due to which the Indian team scored 50 runs in just 3 overs. This was the fastest half-century scored by any team in this format. After this, India also made the record of fastest 100, 150, 200 and 250 runs. Meanwhile, Team India kept losing wickets continuously, but it did not make any difference to the batsmen.
For India, Jaiswal scored 72 runs and KL Rahul scored 68 runs. As soon as the wicket of Akash Deep fell at the score of 285, Rohit took a bold decision to declare the innings. The team scored so many runs in just 34.4 overs. In this way the team took a significant lead of 52 runs against Bangladesh in a single session of the game.
Bangladesh was out for just 146 runs
On the fourth day of the match, Bangladesh scored 26 runs for two wickets in the second innings. Bangladesh tried to draw the match on the fifth day, but the Indian bowlers were ready for it. Captain Rohit used the pair of Bumrah and Ashwin here. Ashwin gave the team the opening wicket by dismissing Mominul Haq, who scored a century in the first innings. After this, Jadeja broke the back of Bangladesh team by dismissing Liton Das and Shakib Al Hasan.
Mushfiqur's struggle did not work
After both the players were out, experienced batsman Mushfiqur Rahim struggled alone and played an innings of 37 runs. In this way Bangladesh was out for 146 runs and Team India got the target of only 95 runs. India easily achieved this target without any problem at the loss of three wickets.
