Top five highest scores by India in Tests vs Bangladesh

#1 India 687/6 in 166 overs – Hyderabad, 2017

Virat Kohli scored his fourth double hundred as captain to equal Sunil Gavaskar and Don Bradman’s feat

In Bangladesh’s first ever Test in India, KL Rahul departed early, on a wicket which was good for batting. Opener Murali Vijay and Cheteshwar Pujara’s stroke-filled partnership provided a solid platform for the Indian middle order. Vijay scored 108 which included 12 fours and a six. As the third session commenced, Virat Kohli, who was just on 17 at tea, piled up 94 runs in no time to notch up his 16th ton in Test matches.

On Day 2, Ajinkya Rahane brought up his fifty and joined Kohli to keep the scoreboard ticking, but eventually fell in the 80s, like Pujara. However, Kohli continued his stunning form to record his fourth double ton as Indian skipper. He is now the first player to reach that landmark in four consecutive Test series.

In the end, Wriddhiman Saha and Ravindra Jadeja strung a century partnership and the former scored his second Test ton.

Kohli decided to declare with 14 overs left in the day. India finished 687 for 6 which is their highest total against Bangladesh in Test matches.
