FATULLAH, Bangladesh, June 14: Bangladesh grinded out a draw after India offspinner Ravichandran Ashwin claimed a five-for to force the host's follow-on on the fifth and final day of the rain-interrupted one-off test on Sunday.
Ashwin returned figures 5-87, his 10th test five-for as Bangladesh was bowled out for 256 in its first innings, in reply to India's 462-6.

A result was unlikely given just 30 overs were to be played. India still imposed the follow-on and Bangladesh ended the day 23-0 before the bails were drawn because of bad light 15 overs before the completion of the match.
For Bangladesh, opener Imrul Kayes top-scored with 72, his third test half-century. Debutant Litton Das was impressive with his 44.
Soumya Sarkar made 37 while Mominul Haque scored 30.
Offspinner Harbahjan Singh took 3-65 besides Ashwin.
