Barsapara Cricket Stadium: Top-order batter B Sai Sudharsan has insisted that India are determined to win the ongoing second Test against South Africa at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, saying that they are prepared to take any route necessary to secure a series-levelling victory.
India reached 9/0 at stumps on day two and trail South Africa by 480 more runs. “I mean, I'm feeling fresh and mentally I'm ready to play in day three. I mean, I'm looking to bat long and obviously get a very good total. As a team, we're looking to win the game and equal the series. So, I think whatever we have to do to win the game, I think we'll do that,” said Sudharsan in a chat with the broadcasters after day three’s play.
India need the win if they are to avoid their second home series loss in Tests in two years. “I mean, ideally, we'll have to bat really well for that first. So, we'll take day by day or even session by session and try and finish and seal the sessions in our side so that we have a better chance on day five and maybe last half of the day five.”
