Umesh Yadav was quite clear when asked about India’s chances in the third
Test match against Australia in Indore.
Australia need only 76 runs to complete a memorable Test win in
India but the wicked nature of the pitch has kept the home team pacer Umesh
Yadav hopeful going into day three. Fourteen wickets fell on the opening
day while 16 batters got out on Thursday. The pitch is offering plenty of
turn and uneven bounce has also made the batters’ job harder.
Nathan Lyon ran through the Indian batting on day two to end with an
eight-wicket haul and put his team within touching distance of a rare win
in India. Umesh acknowledged that his team has not put enough runs on the
board but it still has an outside chance.”In cricket anything can happen. We will try our best and bowl tight lines.
It is not an easy wicket, whether it is our batters or theirs. It is not
easy to step out and hit.
