And Bashir makes it 6, 407 all out with Smith unbeaten on 186. Disappointing how we collapsed under the second new ball, but a fantastic recovery from 84-5.
India heading to leave us a minimum target of about 500 at the rate they’re going and giving themselves 4 sessions to get us out. Why do we persist with short ball tactics when they just leisurely hammer them around.
A weird game where we will need about 550 and our second innings consists of 6 players on potential pairs two of which on potential king pairs. I feel sorry for Jamie Smith who has been out in the field for almost the whole of this match so far.
So they finally declare at 427-6, setting us 608 to win. I hope their overly consrvative declaration costs them when they run out of time needing just a wicket or two to win tomorrow evening.
