Will England complete their record run chase and draw the series? I, for one, can't wait to find out. The plan is very simple for India tomorrow: attack. The mindset or the game-plan that they had today was quite defensive and negative in nature. That is not what India generally do. India's strength, especially away from home, has been their bowling. You can't take things away from your strength and that is what happened today with defensive lines, defensive fields. From here, what they'll be saying is, 'we've got nothing to lose. We need seven wickets, let's give it a try.' It doesn't matter if it finishes in the first hour or if it goes until an hour after lunch.
