IND vs NZ, 1st Test: Target chaseable, batters need to take cue from India, says NZ fielding coach Luke Ronchi

India TV News  

Highlights New Zealand need 280 runs to win the Test on last day. New Zealand fielding coach Luke Ronchi on Sunday said that the record target set by India to win the first Test here was chaseable and asked his players to take a leaf out of the home side's batting approach. From being 51/5, Indian lower-order batters bailed the hosts out in difficult conditions to take them to 234/7 declared, setting New Zealand a 284-run target on the final day. "If we bat with some good intent there and sort of make the most of opportunities to score them, then we certainly believe we can chase it down," Ronchi, also the New Zealand wicket-keeping coach, said at the press conference after the fourth day's play. "Obviously, it was quite difficult for us to take wickets and put a bit of pressure on their batters but then leading into tomorrow, I think all three results are possible," Ronchi said.
