India broke multiple batting records on day four of the ongoing second Test against Bangladesh in Kanpur on Monday (Sep 30). The Rohit Sharma-led team plundered fastest team fifty, 100, 150, 200 and 250 before declaring their first innings at 285/9 after batting for just 34.4 overs.

Openers Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal set the tempo with 55-run opening stand during which the team reached the total of fifty runs in just three overs - the fastest in Test history, going past England's record of 4.2 overs.

After Rohit's departure, Shubman Gill and Jaiswal took over and added 72 runs for the second wicket before pacer Hasan Mahmud sent Jaiswal back on team score of 127. Jaiswal scored a brilliant 51-ball 72 and played an important role in India reaching 100 in just 10.1 runs.

Despite losing wickets at regular interval, India batters continued the high scoring rate and went to tea on day 4 at 138/2 in just 16 overs.

Rohit's men completed 150 in 18.2 overs, 200 in 24.2 overs and 250 in 30.1 overs - all fastest in Test history. They invited Bangladesh to bat again with 45 minutes left in the day, having a lead of 52 runs.

Earlier, the day started with Bangladesh resuming from their day 1 score of 107/3. India didn't have to wait much for the fourth wicket as Jasprit Bumrah sent back Mushfiqur Rahim soon.

Bangladesh continued to lose wickets at regular intervals with Mominul Haque being the constant before India folded them out for 233 runs. Haque remained not out on 107 - his 13th Test hundred as all India bowlers took a wicket each at least.

India's belligerent batting has revived the Test after two days of constant no play and a curtailed first day which saw only 35 overs being bowled.
