Match State: Play about to start on Day 3
Welcome to the CricInfo LIVE comms
After 5 sessions of pain, the Indians would be hoping to give the
minnows the taste of a Test
Bangladesh need to come out with something impressive to bowl out
the Indians for less than 400
The 3 big guns for India haven't been out yet
Ramesh and Kartik are holding ends for now
If Dravid, Sachin and Ganguly go on song, Bangladesh will have a
torrid time out there
At the same time, if they can get out 2 of those cheaply, they will
be in with a good chance
The Test is poised very interestingly
Stay with us for LIVE comms following very soon
