Ravichandran Ashwin claimed the wickets of Zakir Hasan and Hasan Mahmud in his successive overs. Shadman Islam was batting on seven at stumps while Mominul Haque was yet to open his account with Bangladesh still 26 behind.

Records tumbled as India launched a batting blitz to overtake Bangladesh's first innings total of 233 in 28 overs, injecting fresh life into the rain-marred second Test in Kanpur on Monday.

On a frenetic day four, Rohit Sharma's men quickly bowled out Bangladesh and then unleashed batting mayhem at the Green Park Stadium scoring at a rate unprecedented in Test cricket.

The hosts eventually declared at 285/9 and then reduced Bangladesh to 26/2 at stumps chasing victory in a match that seemed destined for a dull draw.

With another sunny day in Kanpur, India will be looking for early wickets on the fifth and final day of the second Test against Bangladesh. Despite the loss of two complete days due to rain and wet outfield, India are pushing for a result in the match with an aggressive approach.
