Well the Indians have put a good total on the board today. If any how Bangladesh manages to draw the test match on the 5th day, then can it be considered as India team defeat ?

Yes draw will be considered as the defeat for Indian team because that means that India is not able to take 8 wickets on the last day of the match.

Mostly there is a chance to win for India,but the climatic conditions only going to decides tomorrow's test,if the bowlers will do good,definitely the Indian team will deserve the test tomorrow,i hope they will win tomorrow in my view.

Its tough to draw the line now.What i mean is that more than 30% of the match have been reduced due to rain.You may be right because of the poor form indian batsmen have shown at the star and can be considered a loss even it is a draw.But i hope india can pull this match off.

Yes i definitely think draw means a defeat to INDIA and a win for bangladesh. Having posted up a good total i definitely feel INDIA have to snap up the remaining 8 wickets of bangladesh tomorrow. But India will not let this game go for a draw and i feel they will get all the eight wickets if they can bowl for say 80 overs at least.

No n the basis of this you cannot jug the whole team performance as to bowl out opposition team it is the responsibility of the bowler not the batsman they had done there part now it is the bowlers turn.
