WTC Final: 250 plus will be good first innings score in these conditions, says batting coach Vikram Rathour

India batting coach Vikram Rathour on Saturday said that a first innings score of 250 plus will put India in a fighting position against New Zealand. India ended the second day on 146 for 3 with Virat Kohli batting on 44 off 124 balls in company of Ajinkya Rahane 29 not out off 79 balls.

India batting coach Vikram Rathour said that a first innings score of 250 plus will be a good score in these prevailing conditions and will put India in a fighting position against New Zealand in the ongoing World Test Championship (WTC) final in Southampton. "We would like to score as many runs as possible but 250 plus will be a reasonable score in these conditions," Rathour said at the day end press conference. India were 146 for 3, when the umpires called off the days play, citing bad lights. At the stumps, Virat Kohli was batting on 44 in the company of Ajinkya Rahane 29.
