OutsideOff: "A tough pitch but after that opening partnership 296 is disappointing"
Vignesh R: "It's showing Min. Ovrs remaining is 5, won't they play till 4.30. " --- Of course, hence the "minimum". For instance, with India still bowling till 4:35 pm (today's scheduled close of play), they could have snuck in 10-12 overs easily.
3.57 pm India have been quite good today. They stayed patient, in the face of a 151-run opening stand. There was some early reward for both Ashwin and Yadav, but it was Axar Patel who has prised this open for the Indians. With a lead of 49, they will want to play out the time remaining, with a minimum of four overs we think, without any damage.
