History against Australia victory

Australia will have to produce a record fourth innings run chase if they are to claim the victory in Adelaide

History is against Australia making a successful run chase to win the first Domain Test against India at the Adelaide Oval, but a recent JLT Sheffield Shield match provides a dose of optimism.

Australia will face a victory target of 323 to win in Adelaide, a fourth-innings chase that has only been achieved once at the picturesque Adelaide Oval ground.

You have to go way back to 1902 to find that successful run chase, with Australia scoring 6-315 to claim the third Test against England.
