Given that the list below is the number of successful 400+ run chases in the history of test cricket, it is a bit pessimistic to think India are in the box seat, but they do have a chance.
West Indies 418/7 128.5 Australia Antigua May 2003
South Africa 414/4 119.2 Australia Perth Dec 2008
India 406/4 147.0 West Indies Trinidad Apr 1976
Australia 404/3 114.1 England Leeds Jul 1948

The highest successful run chase in NZ is 348
