India scored 264 runs for the loss of four wickets on the first day, if they can make a good team today, it will be difficult for England to meet the target. Although England will want to win this match, India will definitely try to play well to level the series. Moreover, since this match is very important for India, they will not give up easily, but they will try hard. And I think the performance of the Indian team has improved a lot, so they will play well in this match and try to win the match and level the series.
We do not see a big innings from Jadeja in this match. India lost Jadeja's wicket early in the day. He was able to score only 20 runs. Shardul Thakur was out after playing an innings of 41 runs. And it is good news for India that Rishab Pant is able to bat again. After retiring hurt yesterday, I thought Pant would not be able to bat again.
India's total is 314 runs for the loss of 6 wickets. Pant and Washington Sundar are now at the crease. If this pair also cannot play well, then India will not be able to collect 400 runs. Rishab Pant is a very experienced batsman. So our expectations will be a little higher on Pant. If they collect less than 400, it will be very difficult for India to take the lead in this match.
