The start of play was once again delayed -- this time by almost three-and-a-half hours -- due to overnight rain, which left the ground water-logged.
Resuming at 44 for 2, the Indians went after the host bowlers and put on 56 runs in the first 10 overs but the acceleration also cost them four wickets.
Going for a pull against Mashrafe Mortaza, Dinesh Kaarthick could only manage a top edge that landed in the hands of Sahriyar Nafees at square leg.
Sachin Tendulkar (31) was next to follow. While trying to sweep left-arm spinner Mohammad Rafique, the right-hander dragged the ball onto his stumps.
