Looks like it will be difficult work for either side to win. Draw is the easiest outcome based on the pitch condition. Only way Ind can win is if Eng go too hard for the win and lose wickets in the process. Otherwise, should be easy for Eng to draw it out at least. But given the target and overs left, Eng would go for the win. That's where it gets tricky and interesting.

Yes but I don�t think our batting is strong enough to last a day, there is enough time left for us to get bowled out which I think we will do.
But if we bat all the overs we will be very close. It�s a fast scoring outfield.

Sounds like it's a decent pitch to bat on, do India's bowlers have enough to prise out England in a day while keeping the run rate under control?

Pleased with that from Hameed and Burns

Yes very good a hard ball on a good pitch there will be scoring opportunities.

Hameed has improved and has more shots now it seems. I think that�s helping Burns to play a bit more aggressively

It will be a thrilling end to this test, tomorrow, 5th day!
Let's see who will hold their nerves the best!

Fair play to Burns and Hameed, decent start tomorrow and all to play for!

Got Malan, Bairstow and Ali to come. Eng have really good chance of winning

This is exactly how I feel.

Day 5 and not expected much to happen off the pitch. Should this be rated as a poor pitch?

ppccopener · « **Reply #670 on:** September 06, 2021, 10:21:01 AM »

There�s plenty of rough for the left handers to cope with. Burns played it really well last night.
I like Jadeja but cannot get my head around Ashwin not playing.
It was always going to turn on this wicket.

Here comes the collapse...

What an awful attempt at a run

As they said on TMS, poor cricket whether you're going to chase or go for the draw.

cant work out whether we are trying to chase it or not
