Fourth innings' chase guidelines…

There was lots of confusion, disappointment, outrage, shock when team India decided to kill the chase in its infancy in the last test of the west indies tour...

Yours truly too was unapologetically disappointed... so i thought of contacting the team India management regarding this very issue... they were kind enough to issue me Fourth innings' chase guidelines which I am sharing with one and all...

Fourth innings' chase guidelines… issued in the interest of team India… err… World’s No.1 cricket team fan…

Is the series already in the bag? (if it’s a tick don’t even bother to go through remaining checks)

Are bowlers bowling dross…?

Is asking rate below 3.00…?

Is ground slow…?

Is pitch a belter…?

And last but not the least…

Is Sehwag playing…?

The last question is most important… because if he is playing… no matter what his second innings' average is… India won’t be given 'challenging' targets anyways…
