Ollie Pope and Joe Root batted very carefully. Both their strike rates are below 50. They will have to bat very carefully in the coming days as well. These two batsmen will definitely have to play well. England team has to take a lead of at least 150 runs. They are now behind by a margin of 133 runs. Since the team has just lost 2 wickets, can't England collect up to 500? If one of Root and Pope can survive at the crease, I guess England will collect more than 500 in the first innings.
Ollie Pope and Joe Root, the two batsmen who did not want to take risks towards the end of the session, batted very cautiously in the last few overs. Moreover, if these two batsmen can bat for a long time, then England will definitely reach the run lead. Looking at England's batting style in the first innings, it can certainly be assumed that England will not suffer a batting disaster. Therefore, if England can form a proper partnership, they will be able to collect over 500 runs in the first innings, whereas if they have a lead of around 150 runs, they will be able to collect the runs that India will set in the next innings very easily.
