BCCI secretary Jay Shah took to X (formerly Twitter) to congratulate Team India for getting the better of Bangladesh by 280 runs in the first Test of the ongoing two-match series played at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.

Star Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin picked up six wickets for 88 runs in 21 overs to finish as the leading wicket-taker in the second innings, and three Bangladeshi batters were sent back to the pavilion by world No. 1 Test all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja.

Apart from Jadeja and Ashwin, the likes of Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill, and Jasprit Bumrah also played a big role in India’s win. In his tweet after India’s win, Jay Shah mentioned all of them and added that the team will now look to seal the series in the second Test, which is set to be start on September 27 in Kanpur.

India needed six wickets to win the match on the fourth day, and Rohit Sharma’s men sealed the deal in the morning session itself. Ashwin opened India’s wicket tally by dismissing Shakib Al Hasan on the fourth ball of the 52nd over. The legendary all-rounder was caught by Yashasvi Jaiswal.
