Australia are in driving seat after scoring 480 runs against India in the first innings of the ongoing 4th Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. In response, India have scored 36 runs without any loss at the end of Day 2. Australia batters Usman Khawaja and Cameron Green hammered centuries and troubled Indian bowlers a lot.

However, As India are aiming to qualify for the Test Championship finals they will need to play better on Day 3. They are still 444 runs behind the Australian team. Meanwhile, former India batter Aakash Chopra has predicted the outcome of the game. Chopra feels that the game is going to be drawn as three Indian batters will smash a century.

Taking on Twitter, Chopra posted his prediction. He said,

"Three centuries from India is loading... Could be a double hundred too. Chances of result: Draw - 70%, India win - 20%, Australia win - 10%. Sounds weird, I know... But that's how I see this game pan out."

"The best overseas opener", Aakash Chopra praises Usman Khawaja

Australia opener Usman Khawaja played a marathon knock against India. In his 180-run innings, he played 422 balls. Given his numbers in UAE, Pakistan, and India, it's safe to say that he is one of the most phenomenal players in Asian conditions. Speaking about the same, Aakash Chopra praised Khawaja's innings.

On his YouTube channel, Chopra said, "Usman Khawaja was simply brilliant for his 180. No matter how flat the pitch is, it's never easy to bat for so long as it requires a lot of concentration. His wicket itself was a lapse in concentration, but he is the best overseas opener who has visited Indian shores in the past 7-8 years."

Aakash Chopra also hailed Cameron Green for scoring his maiden Test hundred in Ahmedabad on Friday. He said, "Cameron Green played a special knock and will be one of the best all-rounders the world has ever seen. The one thing that I was disappointed to see was that we didn't even try the short ball trap to Green."

Meanwhile, here's how fans reacted to Aakash Chopra's match prediction and wished it to become true. A Twitter user said, "Aapke muh me ghee shakar."
