Hyderabad : India scored 86/1 at lunch against Bangladesh in the one-off cricket Test against Bangladesh at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here on Thursday.
Murali Vijay (45) and Cheteshwar Pujara (39) were at the crease when umpires called the break.
For the visitors, medium pacer Taskin Ahmed took one wicket.

Incoming batsman Pujara and opener Vijay then forged an unbeaten 84-run partnership to steady the fort for the hosts.
Vijay's 71-ball knock was laced with six fours while Pujara slammed four boundaries.
