Pathan as a test opener? Done. And he did not disappoint. Looks like he had a good innings there. Neutralized Murali (despite being a lefty) and actually set up the innings well for India to dominate on the final 2 days.

A lead of 297 already, and two days to go. I suspect another 80-100 runs in the first session should be good to finish out the match.

Gangs has a chance to remove the doubts that people have put in his abilities.
