2nd Test: McCullum Said If India Get Above 600, Will Try To Even Chase It Down, Reveals Anderson
Brendon McCullum: As England face an improbable task of chasing a record 399 in the second Test against India, veteran fast-bowler James Anderson revealed head coach Brendon McCullum told the side to try and chase down any score posted by India at the end, even if it is 600.
England ended day three’s play at 67/1 in 14 overs, in a chase of 399. Though they lost Ben Duckett, Zak Crawley remains not out on 29, alongside the promoted Rehan Ahmed, who’s unbeaten on nine, with England needing 332 more runs for an astonishing victory in what is the toughest challenge of the Bazball era so far.
England’s highest fourth-innings successful run chase in India came way back in 1972 when they chased down 207 runs for a victory. As of now, their best-ever successful chase against India came in July 2022, when they chased a record 378 at Edgbaston, under the Stokes-McCullum regime.
