India find themselves on top in the second Test against Bangladesh at the Green Park in Kanpur. The match was headed for a tame draw after rain took significant time out of the match, but a tremendous show by India spooked life in what seemed a dead match. India wrapped up Bangladesh for just 233 in the first innings before slaughtering the Bangladesh bowling attack, scoring 285-9 in 34. 4 overs. R Ashwin then put India on top by scalping two wickets in the final session on Day 4 to leave Bangladesh reeling at 26-2, trailing by 26 runs.India were brutal with the bat and broke a plethora of records during their onslaught, registering the fastest team 50, 100, 150, and 200. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma made India's intent clear as they scored over 10 runs per over during their stay at the crease. Yashasvi Jaiswal top-scored for India with a brisk 72. India suffered a mini collapse when Jaiswal, Gill, and Pant departed in quick succession, leaving India at 159-4. Virat Kohli and KL Rahul then joined hands and added a fiery partnership of 87 runs in 57 balls. KL Rahul scored a classy 68 in 43 balls and Kohli chipped in with 47 in 35 balls. Having runs under his belt does a world of good to a player's confidence and Kohli, who was going through a lean run, was seen in a joyful mood during Bangladesh's second inning. The star cricketer copied his teammate's walking style, the video of which went viral, leaving the netizens in splits.

In another video, Virat Kohli was seen having a laugh about his missed run-out chance. Kohli survived a run out chance early in the day after Khaled Ahmed tried to hit the stumps with an underarm throw when he could have simply walked to the stumps and ran Kohli out.
