Bengal moved into a commanding position against Kerala at Mangalapuram at stumps on Wednesday, 28 October, with the hosts struggling at 53/4 in their second innings. Kerala face a demanding final day after Bengal posted 350 and 198 across their innings, with Kerala dismissed for 141 in their first.

How Bengal took control

Shahbaz Ahmed’s first-innings century changed the match after Bengal had slipped to 172/6 on the opening day. His 121 gave the visitors a substantial total on a surface that increasingly rewarded disciplined bowling.

Mohammed Shami then took three wickets as Kerala were dismissed for 141. Left-arm spinner Pradipta Pramanik claimed four wickets in Kerala’s first innings and struck four more times in the second, leaving the hosts 53/4 overnight.

The final-day equation

Kerala require another 355 runs with six wickets standing. For Bengal, the priority is converting their control into a third straight outright victory, subject to conditions and the final day’s play. This report reflects the verified Day 3 position and is not a final-result report.
