Ravichandran Ashwin made 113 in a commanding partnership with Ravindra Jadeja to lead India to 376 all out on day two of the first Test against Bangladesh on Friday in Chennai. India are looking to extend their lead at the top of the World Test Championship rankings as they begin a fresh Test season of 10 matches.

India posted a competitive 376 in their first innings on the second day of the opening Test against Bangladesh, thanks to Ravichandran Ashwin's century and his 199-run partnership with Ravindra Jadeja.

Ravichandran Ashwin scored his sixth test hundred as he and Ravindra Jadeja dug India's cricketers out of trouble against Bangladesh on day one of the first test.

An unbeaten century by Ravichandran Ashwin leads India's fightback from a poor start against Bangladesh on day one of the first Test in Chennai.

India, who started the day at 339/6, lost all four wickets for the addition of just 37 runs with Jadeja (86) being the first to fall.

A series sweep against Bangladesh will cement India's place atop the World Test Championship (WTC) standings but the team under Rohit Sharma are guarding against any complacency in the two-match home series beginning in Chennai on Thursday.
