Rishabh Pant struck a century on his return to test cricket as India reduced Bangladesh to 158-4 at stumps on day three of the first test.

Bangladesh showed some spunk in their second innings to reach 158 for four when play was called off at 4.25 pm due to bad light.

Before a fading light closed the day about an hour ahead of schedule, R. Ashwin snapped his home crowd from imminent slumber with three quick wickets that opened the prospect of a Sunday morning finale.
