Fascinating Final Day : Ind v Eng 1st Test match in Chennai


Tomorrow is the Final day for Ind v Eng 1st Test match in Chennai, until 3 days, England players dominated the game, after taking the lead in first innings and set a target of 387 to India. Until tea break, everyone thought England would win the test match comfortably with providing tough target to India but after tea break (4th day) India played the second inng's score 131/1, it seems the game took big turn due to the outrageous start by Sehwag's batting ( i just love Viru batting, he is amazing, excellent show, and simply superb), now England had to think little mroe serious to win this test match on the final day. Still many things can happen on the final day, the match is on balance but still England are still favorites on the patchy wicket, spinners will be key esp. Swann. But India had lot of batting to come, they have the chance to win this test match, if they can score 90 +90 runs in two sessions even though they loose couple of wickets then target can be achieved (it is not so easy to bat on final day esp to face spinners with huge turn on the wicket).

It was a great game for India as they won by 6 wickets and they chased down the fourth highest total in test cricket.
