What India need on Day 2?

Well Yashasvi Jaiswal is on 179 and he will try to reach his maiden double ton and it's important he stays at the crease for as long as possible.

If India bat for at least two sessions then they will be in a solid position.

Yashasvi Jaiswal speaks after his Day 1 heroics:

“I wanted to play it session by session. When they were bowling well, I just wanted to get through that spell. Initially, the wicket was damp and there was spin and bounce, with a bit of seam. However, I wanted to convert the loose balls, and play till the end.

“I would love to double this up, and play till the end for the team. I want to recover well for tomorrow now. The pitch played a bit differently, in the morning it was a bit damp and then it settled. With the older ball, there was some bounce."
