Cricket News: On Day 3 of the second Test at Mirpur, Virat Kohli got into a furious argument with Bangladeshi players. However, all of their issues were put to rest when Kohli presented Mehidy Hasan Miraz with a surprise gift on December 25.
Immediately following India’s spirited three-wicket victory on Day 4 to wrap up the two-match series, Kohli gave Bangladesh all-rounder Miraz his jersey. Miraz thanked the former India captain on his official Twitter account for his thoughtful action and for giving him the “unique gift.”
In the second inning, Mehidy Hasan managed to contain the Indian batters.
Mehidy had a standout Test match, taking six wickets overall, including a match-high five (5/63) in the second innings. While defending 145, he made things difficult for the Indian hitters and came dangerously close to giving Bangladesh an unprecedented victory.
Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Axar Patel, and wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant were among those the 25-year-old dismissed, leaving India in trouble at 74/7. Mominul Haque missed a simple catch at forward short-leg, which Mehidy might have taken easily and eliminated senior player R. Ashwin.
The hosts ultimately paid dearly for their oversight as Ashwin counterattacked with an unbeaten 42 and s hared a crucial 71 runs with Shreyas Iyer (29*) for the eighth wicket to help India clinch theseries.
Despite their best efforts, the Bangladeshi bowlers were unable to completely round the foreigners due to poor fielding. During the game, the hosts missed a stumping opportunity and dropped three catches, which changed the outcome of the match. Notably, India won by 188 runs in Chattogram to clinch the series 2-0.
