        Highlights


        Dhawan(140) & Shaw(113) record partnership of 260 lifted us to commanding position before Ngidi(5/118) removed Shaw, after that SA bowlers fought back & except Kohli(68*) nobody else contributed as we ended up at 390.

        South Africa Innings didn't start well as Markram(1) was run out taking a risky single.Hamza(2) followed soon.Faf(85) stitched together 96 runs partnership with Elgar(46).Kuldeep(6/67) then removed Elgar, Miller(2) & Bavuma(1) in quick succession.De Kock(51) & Faf took SA past 200 before Jadeja(1/61) removed Faf.Philander(37*) frustrated Indian bowlers & SA ended at 245 conceding 145 runs lead.

        India lost Shaw(10) & Dhawan(1) early. Virat(117*) & Pujara(56) partnership of 141 took us to commanding position before Pujara was caught behind off Steyn(2/65).Rohit(34) & Pant(20*) were promoted before Rahane to score runs quickly.India declared at 256/4 setting SA target of 402 in 3 & half session.

        Elgar(33) & Markram(46) partnership of 81 provided a good foundation for chase but after that SA batsmen have no answer to guile of India's spin trio of Jadeja(3/19), Ashwin(3/25) & Kuldeep(3/41) as they bundled up on 126 suffering heavy defeat by 275 runs.

        Result

        India won by 275 runs

        Man of the Match

        Virat Kohli(68* & 117*)

        Notable Performances

        Disappointing Performance

                    Highlights


                    After opting to bat under cloudy conditions Bangladesh lost Sarkar(6) early. Tamim(118) & M Haque(114) then put together 175 runs for 2nd wicket & Bangladesh were looking set for big score, Y Ali(24) & M Hossain(48) useful contributions took them closer to 300 but lower order collapse saw them finish on 339.

                    Shaw(96) & Dhawan(46) once again put up a 100 runs opening stand before Dhawan fell 4 short of 50.Pujara(5) followed him soon. Kohli(88) & Shaw added 50 as Shakib(2/133) deprived Shaw his century. Rahane(21) once again wasted his start. Rohit(125) & Kohli 96 runs partnership took us closer to Bangladesh's score.After fall of Virat, Rohit batted well with lower order & tail to take us to 444 & India gained valuable 105 runs lead.

                    In reply Bangladesh openers Tamim(22) & Sarkar(42) put up 64. Useful Contributions from M Hossain(41), Shakib(32), M Rahim(24), M Hassan(24) & T Islam(18) saw them score 234 but failure of these batsman to score big after seeing off the initial phase may have cost them the match as they set India target of only 130 which could be chased easily.

                    Bangladesh bowlers had other plans though as they opened up the game little bit by removing Dhawan(6) & Pujara(5) in quick succession. Kohli(25) & Shaw(19) took India past 50 but then we lost both of them quickly & game was wide open with India at 60/4. Rahane(5) was next to throw his wicket away & India slipped to 74/5. Rohit Sharma(14 off 67) resistance finally came to end when Shakib(2/42) sneaked one past his defence & bowled him, Jadeja's(0) wicket further took us closer to defeat at 88/7 with still 42 needed.We needed a partnership desperately, Experienced Ashwin(19 off 100) took lead in the situation & guided young Pant(27 off 110) in pressure to form a 37 runs partnership before pant got out caught & bowled by Shakib with 5 needed to win. Kuldeep(3) & Ashwin finished the chase & secured India a thrilling victory & heartbreak for Bangladesh.

                    Result

                    India won by 2 wickets

                    Man of the Match

                    Rohit Sharma(125* & 14)

                    Notable Performances

                    Virat Kohli(88 & 25)
                    P Shaw(96 in 1st Innings)
                    Rishabh Pant(27 in 2nd Innings)
                    R Ashwin(3/82, 2/28 & 19 in 2nd Innings)


                    Disappointing Performance

                    Ajinkya Rahane(with only 21 avg & one 50+ score in 6 Tests, he must now go to domestic cricket & gain some form)
