Virender Sehwag raced to his half-century to lift India in their first innings in the second and final Test against Bangladesh at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka on Sunday.
Resuming on 41 from 40 deliveries on the second day, Sehwag completed his fifty from just 51 deliveries, having hit seven boundaries, in the third over of the day. At the other end, Gautam Gambhir was not out on 28 from 43 deliveries as India reached 81 for no loss in 16 overs.
M Mahmudullah was left stranded on a superb innings of 96 from 156 deliveries, laced with 13 boundaries to take Bangladesh to a respectable 233 after they were struggling at 51 for five at one stage.
Pacers Ishant Sharma and Zaheer Khan were both outstanding with the ball as they claimed four for 66 and three for 60 respectively. Left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha also made a useful contribution with the ball as he took two for 45 in 14 overs, while Harbhajan Singh took one for 46.
India lead the two-match series 1-0 after their 113-run victory in the first Test in Chittagong.
