India’s path to victory in the Lord’s Test does not seem to be as easy as it seems, the last hour of the fourth day proved to be sinister for Team India.

New Delhi: India's path to victory in the Lord's Test is not as easy as it seems; the last hour of the fourth day proved to be sinister for Team India. Chasing a target of just 193 runs, Team India has lost four wickets, including captain Gill, for just 58 runs.

KL Rahul is unbeaten on 33 runs on the fourth day, and the Indian batsmen will have to play carefully on the fifth day. Especially KL Rahul will have to take his innings forward and play an important innings to lead the team to victory. At the same time, Rishabh Pant will also be important for India. Both will have a big responsibility on their shoulders.

The first hour of play is important

This will be the last real test of the Test; India will have to bat well on the last day. The Lord's Test has become thrilling. The match had become very exciting for the last two days. The match is now completely open. Both teams have played great cricket.

Washington Sundar could be the impact player

Washington Sundar's dismissal of Joe Root and Jamie Smith changed the course of the entire match. The match, which was entirely in the grip of India, saw England dazzle the Indian batting lineup with its staggering bowling. England could have gotten one or more wickets if its rhythm was not broken at the end of the session.

So, Washington Sundar's work is not over yet. Now he will have to do wonders with batting as well. Sundar will now have to do wonders with batting. If Washington Sundar does wonders with batting as well, then this Test match will become very memorable for him.

Big responsibility on KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant

KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant are very important. If both of them together handle the innings and are successful in taking the team's score beyond 100, then India can win this match single-handedly. But England still has the upper hand.

In the history of Test cricket, a target of 190 or more runs has been successfully achieved only six times at Lord's. Two of these have happened in the last three years. Just last month, South Africa won their maiden World Test Championship title by chasing down 282 in the fourth innings against Australia.
