India all-rounder Axar Patel is keen to not have his team chase a target of more than 125 runs in the Kolkata Test. With the pitch expected to behave even more erratically, batting on Day 3 is expected to be even tougher.
“From one end it feels like it’s going straight, but from the other end everything is happen. Have to play attacking cricket as a batter. Have to convert loose balls and keep an attacking mindset. Can’t have a defensive mindset because you’re never in. When you know there’s something in it for the bowlers, you can get carried away by the thought of bowling some magic balls. Patience is key. If we can keep them under 125, it should be chaseable,” Axar said.
