Black Caps in India

[Chris B.]

@MajorRage To paraphrase David Gower, "You can't let a man like Boult bowl at you".

To be fair to David, he was talking about getting out to Julien Wiener.

[booboo]

[booboo]

Started watching this session and they were going at 5s with a partnership of 100++...

Enjoying it a little more now

[booboo]

Ashwin hitting some nice shots off Santner this over ... new ball due in 6 balls ...

[TeWaio]

Henry strikes with new ball

[Tregaskis]

Henry's test bowling average was about 65 prior to this innings. It's now plummeted to 51.

[Donsteppa]

Jeets built up nicely to destroy in the second innings

[No Quarter]

This pitch already has a lot of variable bounce. We're going to need to score 95% of our runs in our first innings.

Indias tail wagging again.. I remember when the black caps used to be the same..

[mimic]

Justice for Santner.. plumb lbw wasn't given, but then the next one is given..

[mimic]

Just saw, the Indian's only have one batsman with an average below 23..

[mimic]

Henry with a great catch.. India all out for 316

[mimic]

I have this feeling that Guppy will play a superb innings that will buy him another season for the test team..

[mimic]

Guppy should work on his bowling.. He could be our version of Jadeja..

Kumar is getting good shape already in these conditions

[Rapido]

Just seen our team. On paper that is the weakest batting we have put out for a long time (I've blanked out the mid-00s).

Tail starts at 8. Only 3 proper test quality bats in the top 7 ( although credit to Ronchi who I haven't included in this 3).

Off Guppy's elbow onto the stumps...

18/2
