NZ tour of India

I hope Virat doesn't decide to exact some revenge on us for various disappointments we've pushed his way over the last several years.
Our bowlers are going to be on their knees by lunch tomorrow and India can bat all day if they want. They could set us 700 and skittle us in a couple of sessions.

The question for me will be whether this is the start of a truly great career or an average player having one absolutely extraordinary moment……
We’ll see
Pretty sure it's mainly the latter - but, what shouldn't be underestimated is that this is the Indians at home that he has spun out. Those are great figures for a spinner against India even ignoring the significance of getting all 10.
Would be good if we can mount some 2nd innings resistance, so history won't write it off as a minefield pitch.

Send them back out there again. We might be five down again by the close of play.
Optimist

I presume India are going to bat and set a total for us to chase on the second half of day 3 and then days 4 and 5.
What do we think is a realistic target for us to chase down? 550 seems inevitable. Any more than that and it might be beyond us. Even 550 will require a couple of big centuries from our top-middle order.
Still, our path to victory is relatively clear.

Just watched the 1 h highlights. A combination of good bowling and some poor shot options in the NZ innings.
A question: Is Patel still the MOTM if NZ lose heavily? You would think history has to count for something.
Hard to see how he wouldn't be, what feat could a batter possibly achieve to outshine that? Now that I've typed that, Kohli will score 402 not out.

An unbeaten 305 from Rossco to take us to an unlikely victory?

And Jamieson has a big swing and that's that.
@chris said in NZ tour of India:
You will find Williamson has a massive say in selections, in fact the driving force in selecting the team more than Stead.
Then the non playing Captain also has a bit to answer for.
A mate of mine who I do a lot of coaching with here in Australia when he is here,
Has a coaching role within the Black caps set up.
He tells me Kane has a strong hand in selections.That's interesting, what other information can you tell us?
I'd like to know about coach Stead, is he highly regarded at all, or just fortunate to inherit a Golden generation of NZ players?
I think he is good as a man manager,I know my mate likes working with him.
Kane has a strong say in things as it should be.
In cricket the Captains weld a lot of power.
Once Kane hits the field it’s his show.Really, so what do you know about the internal rift that developed within camp with how Stead very poorly 'managed' his players for the SCG test by dropping his most effective bowler against the Aussies in Southee? I think he's a supremely average coach who's considerably out of his depth at the international level.
You mean the dummy spit by Southee when Latham was made Captain and made himself unavailable,Southee wasn’t dropped.
But kept in house.That sounds like an urban myth. No word of him making himself unavailable. All about his being dropped to bring Matt Henry in for his additional pace. Shit decision.

Black Caps coach Gary Stead has explained his controversial decision to drop Tim Southee for the third test against Australia at the SCG. Southee...

Better chance of rain. That being none. Latham’s shot was disappointing. Mostly we weren’t good enough.

That would have to be the most spineless Black Caps batting effort in a decade... such a juxtaposition...
I think 45 all out was worse.
