Firstpost  

Bangladesh were bowled out for 106 in less than three hours as India closed the day at 174 for three, taking a firm grip of the second and final Test of the series.

It’s something we need to address going forward.” Asked whether they had any visibility issues with the pink ball, he said, “Not at all.
