Ashwin and Jadeja add to their legend: India v Bangladesh 1st Test review

We review India's 280-run win over Bangladesh in the first Test in Chennai.
Talking Points:

• Bangladesh complete... then lose by 280 runs

• Bangladesh's impressive trio of pacers

• The sessions that Bangladesh won - before the ball got older and runs flowed

• The sweep v drive ratio: and why Bangladesh chose to sweep much more

• India's spinners finding the right pace for the conditions

• Mohammad Siraj's relentless second-innings spell

• Mehidy and Shakib: too slow with the ball?

• Rishabh Pant's grand return to Test cricket

• Shubman Gill's purple patch in Tests
