Shakib is back into the attack. Ashwin clips the first ball off his pads through square leg for two runs and taps the next on the leg side for another run, to close in on his century.

Jadeja takes one before Ashwin gets the outside edge which flies past the slip fielder for two runs to take his score to 97.

Ashwin misses the full delivery down the leg side as he looks to glance.

In the next over, Jadeja at his watchful best as he plays out a maiden over from Mehidy.

Ashwin swipes Shakib past the fielder at midwicket for two runs to take his score to 99.

He plays his favourite flick off his pads for a single to bring up his second successive Test century at his home ground, from 108 balls.

This is Ashwin's sixth Test hundred as he rescued India after a difficult start in the morning session.

Jadeja also keen to get to the landmark as he comes down the track to hammer Shakib straight down the ground for a four.
