IND vs BAN Twitter: The second test between India and Bangladesh has turned on its head. With a deficit of 87 runs, the hosts tried hard in their second inning. But they only managed 231 all out and gave a 145 runs target to India to chase. The target looked easy to chase, and many believed that India might reach it fairly easily. But then it became a regular sight when India’s stand-in captain, KL Rahul, got out as India lost their first wicket.
It was the sixth consecutive failure for KL Rahul on this tour. He scored 73 runs in the first ODI, but after that, he didn’t do much in the rest of the six innings. He made only two runs. Rahul scored only 57 runs in four innings of two tests at an average of 15.25. He was followed by stand-in vice captain Cheteshwar Pujara, who got out for 6 runs.

Shubman Gill also couldn’t score much and got out for seven runs. However, India took the weird decision of sending Axar Patel ahead of Virat Kohli at No. 4. India lost their first three wickets for 29 runs in 13.2 overs. The second test is becoming more interesting. However, the Indian fans, who thought that it would be an easy chase, were shocked to see India batting defensively. Some fans also bashed KL Rahul for his consistent lack of runs.
Team India needs this win if they want to stay alive in the race for the World Test Championship final. They are at second place right now and a win in the second test will ensure their chances more. The Indian fans took to Twitter and mocked Rahul and Virat after he got out early. Fans also said that Rahul should be removed from all three formats.
