IND vs BAN, 2nd Test Day 4 Live: Here’s what Bumrah said before the start of play

“Weather is something you’re not in control of. Have to quickly adjust, use your experience. You start communicating with the others as well about the pitch and the lines and lengths. For me my favourite format is the Test format. I’ve said it before as well that I wanted to play this format and I’m doing that now. Good to get some overs under the belt and build up those overs. Number of overs we bowl in Australia will be a lot more.”

“The brightest morning so far. The surface has been underneath covers and there is some dampness. There are still some soft spots in the outfield. Once the sun bakes down on the surface it will get drier. It is still a very good track to bat on. The first hour there will be something for the bowlers and if the batters can survive that then they can cash in,” reckon Murali Kartik and Athar Ali Khan.
