26 in 9 overs and the required run rate is already over 7. India quite clearly aren't going for this. Which is probably wise.

Expect this to be called off early.

with how low the expectations were after bangladesh its certainly going to be a good result

good thing india dropped all those catches on day 1 as if we had got off to a bad start it could have got ugly

It's been a test match full of dropped catches.
