Today's play should reassure you about getting a full day's worth - mind, if Australia had held their chances, it might have been a different picture. I suspect you might see a batting masterclass from Marnus tomorrow if he can find some to support him. A declaration would seem unlikely. I'll be interested in how Jadeja does as a bowler, especially as the last Ashes test will take place here in a comparatively short period of time. Hope Jacks get in as many overs as possible with Surrey in the meantime.
Indeed, it was strange to see the number of missed catches by Australia.

On day 4, Australia were 167-6 in their second innings and Starc had come in to join Green. Together they put on a stand of 93 before Starc was dismissed for 41 and they had taken the score on to 260-7 and losing another wicket, they declared with their score of 270 for 8 declared, setting India a target of 444 to win.
India in their second innings had 40 overs to face and at close of play, they had reached 164-3. This means that India still need another 280 runs or Australia to take a further seven wickets to win.
Have I read correctly that this is a six-day match?
