Live Cricket Online - Day 4 England aims to pile up runs

Live Cricket Online - Day 4

As we enter Day 4 of 1st test between India and England, speculations are coming to an end. At this juncture, England certainly looks favourite to win this match. The only other possible result here could be a draw. Things can't be simpler than this for England. With a big lead already in pocket and two more days to go, England can afford to play another 2 sessions and quickly grab as many runs as possible.


England should look at a total of 350 to put India bat in. A bowling of 15 odd overs today in the last session would be good enough to put tons of pressure on Indian batting line up. Before that things also depend on how good Indians would bowl to stop the runs flow.


Day 3 should be completely dedicated to the heroics of Rahul Dravid. Quick bowlers? Overcast conditions? Pressure of 474 runs? Movement in the air? Nothing hampers his concentrations. He stood tall unbreached like a Wall! He was unbeaten on a century where other Indian batsmen couldn't survive. His efforts assisted India to avoid the follow on.
