In Pics: Shakib Al Hasan’s reaction after dismissing Virat Kohli for 47 during Kanpur Test

Team India continued their aggressive intent in their 1st innings to go past Bangladesh’s 233-run mark. Shakib Al Hasan potentially playing his final Test match was the best bowler for the visiting side. The former Bangladeshi skipper got his team a huge breakthrough when he dismissed Virat Kohli for 47. 

India’s former skipper went for an ugly swipe across the line only to hear the death rattle. Shakib could be seen putting his finger up and celebrating the wicket as Kohli was seen walking back to the hut.

Virat Kohli scored 47 runs off 35 balls with four boundaries and a six. During the course of his innings, Kohli also became the fastest to reach 27,000 runs in cricket.

Team India piles on the pressure with the bat 

Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal went after the Bangladeshi bowlers right from the start. Jaiswal hit 3 successive fours in the first over to give India a blazing start. Rohit on the other hand hit 3 sixes and a four on his way to 23 off 11 balls. Team India also set multiple records along the way. 

India became the fastest to score 50,100, and 150 in the history of Test cricket. The fifty came off just 3 overs breaking the previous record held by England. The English side had got to 50 in just 4.2 overs during the Test match against West Indies in 2024. 

Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a quick-fire fifty as he fell for 72 off 51 balls with 12 fours and 2n sixes. Shubman Gill scored 39 as he fell post the tea break with Pant scoring just 9 runs. Both the batters were dismissed by Shakib as India kept going for runs. 

KL Rahul joined Virat Kohli and the pair added 87 runs from 59 balls for the 5th wicket. The veteran Bangladeshi star also dismissed R. Ashwin to get his 4th wicket of the day. Ravindra Jadeja was out for 8 as he was caught off Mehidy Hasan by skipper Shanto.  KL Rahul was out-stumped for 68 and soon after India declared with an overall lead of 51.
