LONDON (Sky Sports) - India sealed a dominant 188-run victory over Bangladesh on the final day of the first Test in Chittagong to go 1-0 up in the two-match series.
Resuming on 272-6, Bangladesh were all out for 324 within an hour - well short of their hefty victory target of 523.
Axar Patel bowled Taijul Islam for a duck to seal the win and end with figures of 4-77.
Shakib Al Hasan showed some resistance with a punchy 84, featuring six fours and six sixes.
India, who have never lost a Test to Bangladesh, hit 404 in their first innings before skittling out the hosts for 150.
Centuries from Shubman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara allowed India to build up a huge second-innings lead before declaring on 258-2 late on day three.
Bangladesh rarely looked like getting closer to their victory target, despite a gutsy century from opener Zakir Hasan on his Test debut.
The second Test begins on Thursday in Mirpur.
