Before the Day 5 action at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur, Team India wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul revealed what skipper Rohit Sharma 's game plan was before they began Day 4 action for the Kanpur Test. He expressed that the skipper's message was clear as day, as he wanted the team to display what they could do as they had to find a way to play and bag a win in the difficult circumstances.
"The message was very clear from the start. We lost a couple of days due to rain. Most of the game was lost to weather, but we wanted to see what we could do in the time that was left. The plan was simple: find a way to play for the win.
"We lost a couple of wickets, but since Rohit's message was so clear that it didn't matter if we got out, we tried to do that," KL Rahul said

But India's aggressive approach has created numerous opportunities, making the final day of play more interesting.
