India are chasing a total of 380 in the Lords ground. Definitely it is a difficult task. They have only 7 wickets in hand and the Englasnd bowlers have a full day to bowl the Indian team out. Can Ganguly, Laxman, Dhoni etc can give the match to India?
Personally, I dont think so. Because almost always India has lost a testmatch which is drawn like this in the field. What do you think?

It is all over . Ganguly and Karthik were looking good yesterday. Both have departed early this morning.I thought that they will provide a solid partnership and guide India home.....It was unlucky. They have done their part well. Now it is up to Laxman....

well I don’t see any hope now. With saurav also getting out then I think now it is not possible for the rest of players can survive the rest of the day and also most of the players dnt evenb have the quality to play the full day. The only thing which is possible which can save Indian is rain and also bad light. If that happens then only can Indian think of a draw otherwise they will loose a match and then I think it is very hard to even level the series.

It seems bit difficult to me after seeing first inning performance. Swinging balls on the grassy pitch are always the cause of danger for the indians. If they play after watching every ball, then draw can happen but what i know they have habit to touch the balls going outside the off stump, so it is a cause of worry for me.
