NZ tour of India

[voodoo]

If we can just keep the lead to under 1,000, I reckon we're a chance

might contribute for the Black Caps in this match...

That's out. Surely.

[kev]

Tom Blundell is not a great keeper. Rate his batting though.

@donsteppa said in NZ tour of India:

Any moment now, someone other than Patel might contribute for the Black Caps in this match...

well in terms of bowling they would have but Stead picked Sommerville instead ....again.

[Damo]

Collapse is on now.

@damo said in NZ tour of India:

Patel gets his 11th.

Does anyone sense a dramatic collapse might be imminent?

It's on!!!

Snap!!!

Meanwhile, Jim Laker has breathed a sigh of relief and gone back to being dead.

[Chris B.]

Ajaz is up to 206/13 for the match.

I don't mind him getting two more, but I'd be a bit disappointed to see him dethrone Sir Paddle's match figures in a game in which we're going to be thrashed barring a miracle.

It looks like Santner and Somerville have probably played their last Test matches.

Not if Somerville and Taylor put on 200 unbeaten for the 8th wicket partnership.

That would move him into Jason Gillespie territory.

Gillespie was a good bowler though

Gillespie was a good bowler though

Still dropped after a double ton

[Pepe]

India declare with a paltry 539 lead

I was also thinking of Danny Morrison.

[Donsteppa]

Ajaz Patel finishes with the best figures by any bowler in a Test v India.

India declare, Craps batting lineup likely to be all out in time to watch the second innings of the Big Bash.

Lucky for them, I’m sure Somerville was due some wickets.

Pretty poor sportsmanship from the Indians to stop Ajaz from getting 5..
