In the Test match between Bangladesh and India, we have seen that India has presented a very good game in both bowling and batting. We know that India is much stronger than the players of Bangladesh.  However, Bangladesh impressed the audience by showing extraordinary performance in some matches.
Bangladesh need 471 runs to win. it seem not possible to cover for Bangladesh . because India bowler are very strong and they can out one by one Bangladesh players there are no doubt india can win this test match against Bangladesh . Bangladesh has played well in ODI match but they are not playing well in Test matches yet.
I can't fully agree with your words because the way Bangladesh is performing against India in this tour I think anything could be possible. And I think that Bangladesh cricket team has the ability to chase 471 run target . And if we see the highest score of Bangladesh in test format it is 638 run against Sri Lanka. And against india they have record of 400run .So I think if Bangladesh can just hold their wicket without Batting like ODI or t20 I think they have a chance
Being hopeful is one thing but being soo optimistic about this is really crazy. I think it's not chaseable at all,unless there is a miracle from Bangladeshi side which in cricket happens in like once in a decade this can happen. Even the highest run chase done by any team in 4th Innings in test cricket is 418 which happened 20 years ago. Even that was a miracle too, because WI chased the total against the mighty Australia. So if such a thing could happen again we'll see.
Being hopeful is good, they also have the home team advantage. Based on the highest run chase in a test match cricket it is really a big target. There are matches in which the teams used to score very low score in the first innings and come up good in the second innings. In this match we've got time, but the target isn't reachable. Lets watch what's gonna happen.
Bangladesh managed to collect pretty good runs at start maintained a good partnership but 2 back to back wickets somehow lost there momentum now let's see how coming batsman will perform and how they chase trail of 370+  runs . Its impossible realistically but you can still hope for anything.

Definitely a tremendous balling by Australians  Mitchell Starc 3 wickets Nathan Lyon 3 wickets . This first innings is totally for Australia as they'll chase this easily .
It should be a bowling friendly track which means you cannot expect high scores. Australia just lost their first wicket (Warner) for duck hence you can expect a close encounter throughout this test match. Still, I assume chasing a small total like less than 200 runs in forth inning would be easier for Australia and at the same time if they need to chase anything beyond 280 then the chances are belonging to South Africa.

South Africa is in deep shit. They are at 139/8, with Anrich Nortje and Kagiso Rabada at crease.
They managed to cross 150 runs. I am expecting a low score thriller out of this first match of between these two strong bowling attach teams. So, 150 runs on first innings seems like competitive in my eyes.

Anyone watching the South Africa vs Australia test match at Brisbane? South Africa is in deep shit. They are at 139/8, with Anrich Nortje and Kagiso Rabada at crease. Only Verreynne and Bavuma managed to score above 10 runs. Mitchell Starc took 3 wickets so far, and Scott Boland is just having a dream run in this test as well. So far he has picked up 2 wickets, to keep his test bowling average hovering around the 10.00 mark. And now Nathan Lyon has joined the party, by picking up two quick wickets (including that of Kyle Verreynne).
Australia vs South Africa 1st test match
South Africa all out on 152 runs , only Kyle Verreynne made some reasonable runs 64. All the other batsman  couldn't score any runs . Definitely a tremendous balling by Australians  Mitchell Starc 3 wickets Nathan Lyon 3 wickets . This first innings is totally for Australia as they'll chase this easily .

Bangladesh is an unpredictable team especially winning match they can lose. And when the opponent throws a big target, they will not be able to collect the required score. There are many such histories have in their cricket. Moreover, with the current batting capacity of Bangladesh, it is a very difficult task for them to collect the 471 runs. But if the performance is like the first two matches of the previous ODI series, it is a different matter. But naturally they will not be able to maintain the winning streak in this match. Even though, a partnership of 42 runs was built without losing any wicket.
Bangladesh first innings was a total disaster and they couldn't score much runs, now in second innings India managed to score 258 runs and lead of 471 runs for Bangladesh so now let's see how they'll bat now in 2nd innings. If they want to win this match they have to bud a sensible partnership.

They did impress many people primarily thanks to Miraz in the ODI matches. On the other hand, they are playing like crap in the ongoing test series while India is decimating them in order to stay in the hunt for the second spot in the WTC table.

Also, I'm glad to see proper results instead of rain screwing both teams which was such a major annoyance in recent times.

Bangladeshi bowlers just ran out of carrots in just 3 days and they are also 2 bowlers down.

I suppose Ebadot Hossain struggling with his back and Shakib still has not recovered from his ODI rib injury (Courtesy Umran Malik), he only bowled 12 overs in this match and he's the key bowler for Bongs.
The whole team has run out of carrots. Test cricket is not that easy for bowlers. They need to be fit, should be ready to experiment and apply different strategies.

Shubman Gill is a batter that I have adored for sometime now. This young talented player in my opinion has a great future in both test and ODI format. He is that kind of batter who will take time settle but once he is settled he is unstoppable.

India has dominated the entire test match and I am pretty much confident that the Indian bowlers will take down Bangladesh bowlers with ease tomorrow.
Now it's only fair that Bangladeshi batters pull their shocks up and return the favor to Indian bowlers by batting a minimum of 90 overs.

Gill is an exciting prospect, although his batting technique is more suited for SENA countries but really happy he finally got his maiden test ton in the subcontinent. Poor guy missed one in Aus, hope his desi dad won't complain about the missed opportunity of Gabba anymore lol.

Yeah, there is no way Bangladesh is going to be able to win this test match. I think Bangladesh should have planned like this. They should have tried to control the flow of runs. Bangladesh should have kept the run rate of India very low. So that by the time India could have got a significant score on the board, it would have already been the last session of the fourth day. And Bangladesh could have had a chance to draw the Test match.

But now there is no chance of that happening. India leads by more than 500 runs right now. The chances of Bangladesh being able to score that many points are slim to none. The only chance for Bangladesh is to not get out and somehow try to draw the test match. And honestly, a draw is even out of reach for Bangladesh.

India were bowled out for 404 runs in the first innings of the Bangladesh vs India Test.  Later, when Bangladesh started batting, Bangladesh lost eight wickets for 102 runs in response to the Indian bowlers.  And the next day, after completing the second innings of 133 runs, Bangladesh collected 150 runs when more wickets fell.  Bangladesh lost to India by a huge margin.

Bangladesh batting was a disaster in 1st innings all out on  150 runs not a single batsman made any runs . Now India is batting again  and are on 231 runs 2 wickets gone.
Ayways this 1st test match is very much on Indian side as they performed good somehow atleast better than Bangladesh.

So far it looks like India is playing this game on easy mode, expect 30 mins of 1st inning when they were 3 down for 40-ish something.

Bangbros as a team not trouble them at all and atm the Indian batters are taking this as batting practice, well plenty of time in this test so they have a luxury atm.

FYI this is the same ground where the Windies chased down a mammoth 390-ish target in the 4th inning.

Now the pitch is looking easy to bat on.
