7 down!!

Awful way to get out.

[Hooroo]

Boom and another

[booboo]

Re batting options, who was that Auckland bloke who busted his shoulder? Will Young?

[Virgil]

Dream start, picking off the 2 guys who could have pushed that lead up.

[Virgil]

Boult in for a chance at our cheapest ever 5 for?
My crap skills using stat guru shows it to currently to be 5/26 by Bruce Taylor.

Edit: no wait there’s a 6/26 by Chris Martin and a 7/27 by Chris Cairns.

Smithy reminds the viewers of our capitulation vs Pakistan in Hamilton

[Bovidae]

@canefan And I was there!

Don't worry I am not at Hagley. Given the conditions the chase won't be easy. We can just promote Jamieson and Wags.

[Virgil]

9!!

[Mokey]

I sure hope we get the last guy out asap. The way this pitch is playing, I'm not overly confident about us getting the runs, even 150 or whatever. India bowled really well yesterday and will be pissy as hell.

[canefan]

Timmy has to make Bumrah defend his stumps. No deliveries on the stumps so far this over

[Donsteppa]

Not a good time for Jadeja to start jamming extra runs...

[Donsteppa]

Excellent, solved by a runout

[mariner4life]

i HATE these 130-odd 4th innings chases, they are so fucking nervy, and always seem to be harder than they should be.

[Virgil]

132..
Easy as it’s not like we are facing up to Waqar and Wasim

[canefan]

Right, 131 to win. Come on boys! We have to be positive, don't want to get picked off one by one by the pitch

[Chris B.]

@Donsteppa Phew - for a second I thought they'd missed yet another stone dead runout - but Kane picks up a good bounce and runs it in under the posts - so to speak!

[Gunner]

The guys on the radio were saying earlier that this pitch shouldn’t be as tough to score on as the scoreboard suggests.

One decent partnership is really all we need to ensure we get over the line here.

If we lose a few cheaply the total will feel like 331

[Hooroo]

Good grief! That was heart in mouth running
