The situation on Day 5 of the World Test Championship 2023 final between India and Australia at The Oval seems to be quite challenging for the Indian team. India currently stands at 164 for 3, needing another 280 runs to win the Test match and the final. Australia has set a formidable target of 444 runs for India after scoring 270 runs for 8 in their second innings.
On Day 4, India lost the wickets of Shubman Gill (18), Rohit Sharma (43), and Cheteshwar Pujara (27) in their following of the target. Pat Cummins, Scot Boland, and Nathan Lyon from Australia have each taken one wicket so far.
As the play resumes on Day 5, the assignment advanced for India is to save wickets and build a solid partnership betwwen Virat Kohli, who is not out on 44, and Ajinkya Rahane, who is not out on 20 . The two batsmen will need to adopt a patient and disciplined approach while dealing with the Australian bowlers and gradually chip away at the required runs.
Given the target set by Australia and the wickets already lost, India faces an uphill battle to secure victory in the final. However, cricket is a game of uncertainties, and if Kohli and Rahane can bat well and build a substantial partnership, India still has a chance to salvage the match and potentially win the World Test Championship. The final day's play promises to be an exciting and intense battle between bat and ball.
