England has set a daunting 420-run target for India on a wearing Chepauk wicket in the first Test of a five match series at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. India would be eyeing a miracle on the final day of the Chennai Test as it needs 381 more runs to script a historic chase today. The record for the highest successful chase in Test history is 418, by West Indies against Australia in 2003.

However, Ishant Sharma, who became third Indian pacer to scalp 300 wickets in Tests, said after the close of play on Day 4 that If the team got a good start on Day 5, India could chase the target down, because it had a fearless batting line-up. He also said that it was important to look at 381 runs and not 9 wickets.

England, on the other hand, would look to take wickets in first session to shatter India’s hope.
