Ashwin-Jadeja Partnership Turns the Tide: India Ends Day 1 in Strong Position vs Bangladesh

Chennai – India has found its foothold on the opening day of the first Test against Bangladesh, thanks to a resilient partnership between Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. After being reduced to 6 wickets down, the pair formed a century-plus partnership, guiding India beyond the 300-run mark in the final session at the MA Chidambaram Stadium.

Ashwin, nearing his well-deserved century, showcased his classic technique and temperament, while Jadeja provided able support with a timely half-century. Their partnership has firmly put India in a commanding position after Bangladesh, having won the toss, opted to bowl first. Early breakthroughs from the Bangladesh bowling attack had put India on the back foot, but Ashwin and Jadeja’s resolve shifted the momentum.

As the final overs of Day 1 approach, India looks to capitalize on this partnership, while Bangladesh will be eager to break through and wrap up the tail before Ashwin can reach his century. The balance of the match now hinges on how both teams approach the next session.

Stay tuned as the action unfolds on Day 2 of this gripping Test match in Chennai.
