BAN folded for 150
Axar Patel gets the final wicket and Bangladesh are folded for 150 in the first innings. KL Rahul runs to the dressing room. Looks India will not give the follow-on and come out to bat. India probably predicted that batting in the fourth innings won't be very easy and did not take a chance. 200 more from here will possibly push Bangladesh out from any hopes.
