With the win in Kanpur, India finished the series 2-0, and they are now at the top of the table in the ICC Test Championship.
Despite losing more than two days to rain, Bangladesh still couldn't salvage at least a draw from the match, which was an unexpected outcome given the circumstances.
Bangladesh's batting collapse handed them an unexpected defeat. At the same time, India's clever batting approach in their first innings, where they scored more than eight runs per over, also turned the match in their favor.
In their first innings, India made some world records for aggressive batting. They are now the holder of the records of the fastest 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 runs in the history of Test cricket.
In the second innings of Bangladesh, the onus was on the batters to bat as long as possible in the second innings. But they failed to do that.
Only Shadman Islam and Mushfiqur Rahim showed some resistance against the Indian attack. While Shadman scored a fifty, Mushfqiur fell for 37.
Mominul Haque, who scored a century in the first innings, Shakib Al Hasan, Litton Das, Mehidy Hasan Miraz all failed to keep the match alive.
