India lead by 68 runs

India have taken 68-run lead in the first innings losing only three wickets in 46 overs.

Bangladesh scored 106 runs in 30.3 overs after losing all wickets in the second test against India at Eden Gardens in Kolkata of West Bengal, India. 

Bangladesh captain Mominul Haque won the toss and elected to bat first in his side’s maiden day-night Test on Friday.

The Tigers which lost the first Test in Indore by an innings and 130-run brought up two changes to the side, with pacer Al-Amin Hossain and off-spinner Nayeem Hasan replacing left-arm spinner Taijul Islam and off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

Bangladesh captain Mominul Haque said the pitch is good to bat on because of the surface which is dry.

India, who leads the two-match series by 1-0, however remained unchanged from the first Test.

After the toss, Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who came here by the invitation of Indian Prime Minister Norendra Modi and BCCI president Sourav Ganguly, along with West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee were introduced to the players in the ground.
