The 2-match Test series between India and Bangladesh will start from September 19 in Chennai, MA. It started from the Chidambaram Stadium. In the first Test match of the series, the captain of the Bangladesh team won the toss and decided to bowl first, which his bowlers almost proved right. The Indian team had lost 6 wickets for a score of 144 runs by the second session of the first day, in which Yashasvi Jaiswal scored only 56 runs. After this, the pair of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja took the team out of this precarious situation and also made a record partnership for the 7th wicket.
Ashwin and Jadeja together broke a 24-year-old historical record
When Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja came to bat, the pressure of Bangladesh bowlers on the Indian team was clearly visible. After this, Ashwin adopted an aggressive stance and started attacking the Bangladesh bowlers. Jadeja also supported him well and soon the team's score crossed 300 runs. When both of them shared more than 180 runs for the 7th wicket and also broke the 24-year-old record. Earlier, the record for the highest run partnership for the 7th wicket against Bangladesh from India was in the name of Sourav Ganguly and Sunil Joshi, which is in the name of Jadeja and Ashwin in 2000.
