CHENNAI: A sublime century by Shubman Gill (119 not out) and a hard-hitting 109 by Rishabh Pant helped India set a mammoth target of 515 runs for Bangladesh on the third day of the opening Test at Chepauk here on Saturday.

Jasprit Bumrah has taken 4-50 to help skittle Bangladesh for 149 and give India a first-innings lead of 227 runs on Day 2 of the first test.

Bangladesh were alive in the game and fighting when off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz troubled the Indian batters with a five-wicket haul while defending a target of just 145 runs. In his five-for, Miraz dismissed Pujara, Gill, Kohli, Pant and Axar and had India reeling at 74/7. But, his effort went in vain as Iyer and Ashwin took India home.

Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah has joined an elite club by becoming the 10th Indian bowler to take 400 wickets across all formats. His remarkable achievement came during the first Test against Bangladesh in Chennai.

Jasprit Bumrah has entered an elite club in international cricket, achieving the milestone in 196 matches. India dominated the first Test against Bangladesh, bowling them out for 149 runs in response to 376,
