B'desh 23-0 (15 ovs) f/o & 256 vs India 462-6d | Scorecard


With the result out of reach and just two overs needed to complete the 15 overs needed to finish off the quota of overs before the mandatory overs begin and draw can be agreed upon, Kohli decides to have some fun.

Part-timer Murali Vijay comes into the attack and he bowls a maiden over to Tamim, who is careful enough not to give his wicket away to a part-timer.

And from the other end we have Shikhar Dhawan as the Indian players are all having a laugh out in the middle. Kayes sees off the last over before the two teams agree to take the draw.

Bangladesh finished on 23 for no loss in 15 overs in their second innings to get only their second draw against India in eight Tests.

A good showing by India with the ball but in the end the time lost to rain proved vital.

Only 186 overs were bowled in the Test match with the second day completely washed out but India were still able to enforce the follow-on courtesy of Ashwin's five for 87, while Harbhajan took three for 64.

The two teams will now clash in three-match ODI series, to be played June 18, 21 and 24 in Mirpur with all three games having a reserve day in case of rain.
