India managed to take a lead of 16 runs in the second innings of the Test and dismissed Pakistan for 286 in the third innings. The target of 271 was a challenging one but considering the strong batting line, India was expected to chase it down.

India went on to win the second Test in Delhi and the 2 match Test series was drawn 1-1.
