Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan walks ou

The Indian batsmen did commendably well on Day 1 in leaving balls outside the off stump on Day 1 but fell playing at similar kind of deliveries on the second morning.

Indian fans will be hoping for a repeat of the Day 1 performance when India eventually come out to bat on Day 3. While Virat & Pujara will definitely hold the key, Shikhar Dhawan might just prove to be the joker in the pack.

Dhawan should be encouraged to attack the bowling at any given chance. Giving one of the top order batsmen to go after the bowling might well be a gamble worth taking at this stage of the match.
