🏏South Africa tour of India - 2025: India vs SA - 2nd Test: Day 5🏏 - Page 19

There is no point in chasing the target. India should play this innings for a draw.

Cheers..

Now it is up to the Indian players how they can waste time on crease.

Only once has a team scored over 400 runs on Day 5 of a Test: 404/3 by Australia (“Bradman’s Invincibles”) vs England at Headingley in 1948, in what happened to be the first ever successful 400-plus run-chase in Test cricket history.

Each of the seven wickets to SA quicks - all to Jansen- came via short-pitched balls. SA quicks collectively pitched 48.08% of the deliveries in this zone across the two innings, and returned 7/41 while doing so. India quicks went short 190 times (37.8%) and returned 1/99 off those in the Test.

Stubbs: Little bit (disappointed?), but they're two down now so we'll take that. Wasn't an overs thing (declaration), was more about the time. We had forty minutes after lunch. Thought I'll give it a go (for the hundred), and then when Jadeja came on, that was the last over, so I thought two hits is my best shot. If you were just looking to defend (deliveries out of the rough) I thought you'll be a sitting duck. That was more of a defensive shot to get off strike (sweep). Some of those shots - you had to play them. There's some nice footholes there. Harmy showed it - getting KL out. If we get the ball in the right areas, there's enough in this wicket.
