Jaiswal's fifty guides India to victory

Kanpur (Uttar Pradesh): Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal's exceptional fifty in the second innings guided the hosts to a comfortable victory by seven wickets over Bangladesh at Green Park on Tuesday. Jaiswal won the man of the match award for his contributions with the bat in both innings.

Rohit falls early
The second session on Day 5 of the Kanpur Test started with Indian openers Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal taking the field as the team needed just 95 runs to win. Rohit went back to the pavilion after scoring just eight runs when the team score was 18.


Jaiswal and Gill add to the total
After the skipper's dismissal, Shubman Gill came out to bat along with Jaiswal. Both batters were able to add just 16 runs to the total before Gill was sent back to the dressing room, scoring only six runs when the team score was 34.

Kohli joins Jaiswal at the crease
After Gill's departure, Virat Kohli came out to bat with Jaiswal. The Rohit Sharma-led side reached the 50-run mark in the 7th over as Kohli smashed a boundary off the last ball bowled by Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

Jaiswal scores second fifty of the match
Jaiswal went on to score his second half-century of the match. He was dismissed after scoring 51 runs from 45 balls, which included eight fours and a six.

Kohli and Pant seal the victory
India clean-swept the series with seven wickets in hand. Virat Kohli (29*) and Rishabh Pant (4*) remained unbeaten on the crease to secure the win.
