CHENNAI: There's been an air of inevitability about this Test match since the time Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja had that partnership of 199 in the first innings. On Saturday afternoon in fading light, the duo was in ‘let's finish the Test today' mode after the young entertainers Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill had raced away to their centuries.
But captain Rohit Sharma felt he needed a bit of variety and decided to introduce paceman Mohammed Siraj. The light meter came in immediately, the light was offered, and Bangladesh lived to fight another day.
