Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto, who battled to 82 in Bangladesh's second innings, said Hasan Mahmud's bowling was one of the few positives for his team from this match. "The positive thing is the way Hasan, Taskin and Rana bowled in the first 2-3 hours, really impressive.

For the first time in India's Test cricket history spanning 92 years, the number of wins is more than the number of defeats as the two-time World Test Championship finalists beat Bangladesh by 280 runs in the opening match of the series.
