Vijay insists game is 'well placed'

Monday, July 21 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    India took control of the second Test on Sunday (July 20), reducing England to 105-4 at stumps and still needing another 214 runs for an improbable win with one day left.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): Murali Vijay, India

    "Actually, the game is really well placed and we have four wickets and they have got a 100. So it is really well placed tomorrow. And (Ravindra) Jadeja is spinning the ball really well and hopefully if he can get us an early breakthrough tomorrow in the morning and the fast bowlers can help."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Paul Farbrace, England assistant coach

    "It is going to be tough tomorrow. It is definitely going to be tough. And I have already said for Moeen (Ali) outside his off stump, there is a fair bit of rough. And we saw tonight one or two balls bouncing and turning. But, you know, you would expect that on day five of a Test match. I think it has been a fantastic cricket pitch. It went through the first few days. The ball is now starting to turn. There is a little bit of uneven bounce. It is a fantastic cricket pitch. We have got to play well tomorrow. Yes, perhaps we are slightly up against it. But we have got to fight really hard and I am sure that the pitch will come into it tomorrow."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Murali Vijay, India

    "Say, we are all pumped up to do something special and that is our intent from the first guy to the 15th guy. So we are here to prove a point and we are here to win a game. So obviously this game is placed really well for both teams. It is going to be a fantastic day tomorrow. And whoever plays the best cricket is going to win."
