England will have to give India a target in access of 200 runs to India says http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Geoffrey-Boycott-c58776 – Cricket News Update
Former England captain, Geoffrey Boycott has said that England will have to give a target in access of 200 runs to India in the last innings, if the home team has any chances of taking a 2-0 lead by the end of the this match.
England and India are currently up against each other in the second Test of the four-match series at Trent Bridge, Nottingham. The first Test of the series at Lords was won by England comprehensively. However, this second Test is turning out to be a cracker
of a match and it was evenly poised at stumps on day 2 and surely it is going to produce a result, with so much time left.
England was trailing by 43 runs with nine second innings wickets in hands, by the end of Day 2.
Boycott agrees that it is turning out to be a fascinating encounter between two of the world’s best Test teams. In order to make this match more interesting, Boycott feels that http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 will have to bat out of their skins today.
He said, “This Test match is going to be nip and tuck all the way from now. The key to it will be how well
England bat today. They are going to have to graft and work very hard and give
India a target of over 200 to make in the fourth innings. Anything less will not be enough.
India currently holds a slight advantage in this match but its grip could have been much stronger without the hat-trick by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/P-Kumar-c2143 on successive deliveries. The lanky
fast bowler picked up six wickets and made sure that http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 does not run away with the show by taking a massive first innings lead.
“Stuart Broad rose to the occasion again. It was absolutely brilliant drama. With India looking as if they would get a big lead he bowled fast and straight, got a hat-trick and finished up with six wickets to blow the late order Indian batting away,” Boycott
added.
