India beat Bangladesh in Day-Night Test to record 12th successive series win at home

ith the resounding win, India also extended their lead in the World Test Championship by collecting 120 points from the two-match series. India had hammered Bangladesh by an innings and 130 runs in the series opener in Indore.Eden Gardens played the perfect host for the historic game with packed crowds on all three days bringing back memories of the times when Test cricket was more popular. However, the lack of competition on the field was nowhere close to the hype surrounding the game.The SG pink ball, which had not been tested in a competitive game before the big game, expectedly assisted India's lethal pace attack which took all the wickets on offer. An evidence of their menacing form was the amount of concussion subs Bangladesh had to use after the batsmen received heavy blows.While Ishant Sharma took a five-wicket haul in the first innings, Umesh Yadav did the same in the second.The game will also be remembered for Virat Kohli's 27th Test ton, extending his overall tally to 70 international hundreds.
