Shreyas Iyer 65 (125) and Viruthiman Saha 61 (126) both played well in the second innings. Ravichandran Aswin 32 (62) and Akshar Patel 28 (67) also added some runs. Thus, the Indian team added 234/7 and set a target of 284 for New Zealand.
Challenging goal:
On Indian soil, the maximum number of runs chased in Test cricket is 275. Thus, the defeat of the New Zealand team is considered almost certain.
Recession for New Zealand:
Ashwin bowled LBW as opener Will Young added 2 (6) for New Zealand, who chased down a mega target of 284. Will Young would have ended up not out if Young had taken the review. But, he went without taking the review. Currently the New Zealand team has added 4/1 runs. Tom Latham 2 (13) and Somerville 0 (5) are on the field. The last session of the fourth day game is over. The last day of the game will take place tomorrow.
