Black Caps tour of India

I hope this is Conway getting back into form. He’s played some fine shots so far,

[MN5]

First innings lead, 10 wickets in hand.

I haven’t had a drink all day but we’re SURE it’s New Zealand batting at the moment and not India right ?

[Bovidae]

A comical miss from Rahul in the slips. Well left.

[canefan]

I switch the cricket on and Latham looks to survive a review. Sketchy. Didn't the ball hit Latham on the arm? He was a long way forward. Crazy review

[canefan]

Conway looks a different player right now. Like the old DC

[MN5]

50 for Conway.

As if this match isn’t crazy enough already Latham is just 15 after being the quicker scorer of the two for so long now.

Well played Conway, awesome seeing him back in form

[canefan]

Oh dear. Stone dead plumb

[KiwiMurph]

Awful decision from Reifel. Unusual from him

[MN5]

Young needs to prove he can contribute at this level more consistently than he has in the past

[Donsteppa]

All I can think of there is that Reifel thought bat on foot was an inside edge.

Huge opportunity for him. Looking smooth at the moment, but it will count for nothing if he can't stay in and get a score

[Donsteppa]

What a day. I didn't think we'd have a first innings lead all series, let alone on the very first day of play...

Thats what Doull suggested

Great minds? I was half watching, half cricket admin...

[NTA]

Next time a scam caller rings me, I'm going to ask about the cricket, "Steve"

[Chris B.]

@Donsteppa I think Tom would have hit that - except the bat hooked on his foot.

Tactically we have been excellent today clear batting and bowling plans.

The only thing that I'm hugely critical of - even though things have worked out almost perfectly so far is... in what dream world do they live in that they throw the new ball to Timmy and say, "have the first crack - you're most likely to grab the early wicket."

It's beyond moronic!

[NTA]

Some fucking nice catches in that compilation

Haha he did get the first wkt he is useless once the ball gets older if you are going to play him and I wouldn’t he has to have the new ball to get any swing or he is absolute shit.
It is the only way to get anything out of him with the new ball,
No use bowling him at 3 to let the pressure off might as welll bowl him up front and hope he knicks one of two off.
