India opener KL Rahul has asserted that the visitors will give themselves the “best chance” to dismiss the England batting lineup and take a 1-0 lead in the series when the final day’s play in the first Test resumes here on Tuesday.
The Headindley Test was interestingly poised on Monday with India setting the hosts a tricky 371-run target for victory, while Ben Stokes’ side began the chase expertly on day four with openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett erasing 21 runs from the total.
“Blockbuster finish waiting tomorrow. There’s definitely going to be a result. That’s what England have said openly and it gives us the opportunity to pick up 10 wickets,” said Rahul, who along with Rishabh Pant, played a pivotal role in propping up India before they were all out for 364. PTI
