Could India have played at a faster pace : India batted slowly but steadily throughout their innings. They could have played at a faster pace but the pace at which they played was instrumental in getting a foothold in the match after Gautam Gambhir’s early dismissal on day 3. Pujara and Vijay both played steadily seeing outpace and spin. Vijay was the slower of the two who took over 300 deliveries to reach to his 126. Pujara was slightly faster as he took 206 deliveries to reach his 124.
