Preview: India were in a hurry on Day 3 of the first Test against Bangladesh, handing the hosts a target of 513 runs after Shubman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara scored individual tons to help India post 258/2 (D) in the second innings. . This was Gill’s first Test hundred.

Earlier, India bowled out Bangladesh for 150 in the first innings but failed to force a follow-on.

“Personally, I thought it (the girls’ Test century) was a long time coming for me. Today was mainly about getting out of a difficult situation. There were no other thoughts (while batting in the 90s). For me it was about playing the pitch and then being able to score goals. It was very instinctive (to hit a couple of boundaries and get to the milestone). There was a gap between third man and the spike when the bowler rounded the wicket. I didn’t play it the whole shift. And as soon as the field came, I crossed the field. By lunchtime I was batting around 13. When I faced 100 balls I was 70, it’s about pace in the innings. You have to know when to attack as a batsman,” Gill said after reaching his hundred.

Bangladesh were 42/0 before stumps were called on Day 3.
