'From Despair To Domination': Sachin Lauds Ashwin-Jadeja 'super' Partnership In Chennai
MA Chidambaram Stadium: Legendary batter Sachin Tendulkar credited all-rounders Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja for their "super" 195-run unbeaten partnership to rescue India from a crumbling situation on the opening day of the first Test against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Thursday.
The duo stabilised India's innings to finish the first day's play at 339/6 following Ashwin's 102 not out and Jadeja's unbeaten 86 at Chepauk. India were once tottering at 144/6 after Bangladesh pacer Hasan Mahmud dismantled the hosts' top order as he took the scalps of Rohit Sharma (6), Shubman Gill (0), Virat Kohli (6) and Rishabh Pant (39) in the second session.
The wickets of Yashasvi Jaiswal (56) and KL Rahul (16) in the second session further mounted India's struggle in the middle before Ashwin-Jadeja reestablished dominance of the home side.
