Visakhapatnam, Feb 4: India batter Shubman Gill believes the hosts are pretty much in the game after setting a daunting target of 399 for England in the second Test, adding that it is currently 70-30 in favour of them.
England have a mammoth task ahead of day four’s play, after ending day three at 67/1 in 14 overs, and need 332 runs more for an improbable win. On the other hand, India need nine wickets to square the five-game series.
“I think it is a pretty decent wicket to bat on. Run scoring is not easy, you can’t hit on the rise, and you have to apply yourself because the odd one is turning and keeping low. Hopefully, if we get the right number of balls in the right area, we’ll get the job done. We are pretty much in the game; I think it is about 70-30 at the moment. I think the morning session will be important,” said Gill to broadcasters. (IANS)
