With a substantial first-innings lead of 227 runs, India has put themselves in a strong position to secure a victory in this Test match. However, the Indian team management has decided not to enforce the follow-on, giving Bangladesh another opportunity to bat.
This is the second-lowest Test total recorded by Bangladesh in India. Their previous lowest total was 106, recorded in Kolkata in 2019.
