Black Caps tour of India - 2024

[Chris B.]

Rachin the second to get to 30.

Mary Tyler Moore music starting to play - We might just make it after all!

[No Quarter]

We want to finish this before lunch given the forecast

[Donsteppa]

Wise batting from Rachin. Between weather, and the bounce not likely to improve...

Rachin is gonna finish this in a few minutes

[Bones]

Geez, 33% with just 20 runs to get?

[Donsteppa]

Gotta beat the incoming weather too I guess.

[Damo]

You haven’t contributed to this thread all match, don’t try and hop on the bandwagon now.

OK then. We need to knock this off before lunch then for sure.

Do not give the weather and the possibility of any shenanigans a chance.

@Bones 20 to get - India win still 7 percent!

[No Quarter]

I would have reviewed that just to waste time

[Crazy Horse]

The Indian commentators are heaping praise on him, saying it's been a very long time since a young batsman has looked so comfortable against their spinners. High praise indeed.

[No Quarter]

The double ton that Rachin got against the weakened SA showed his talent, this match has shown his class

Didn't he save a test on debut in India? I thought that was pretty classy

[Crazy Horse]

I thought Rachin showed what he could be in the early stages of the last world cup. He looked so comfortable at that level while scoring at a good clip. Exciting times ahead if he can find consistency.

Too soon to bank this? TNZ did bloody well, the Caps are de-crapping themselves ... just need the womens T20 to cap off an epic weekeng!

[canefan]

I'm happy to stick a fork in India. The fat lady is warming up her vocal chords

Almost makes up for everybody's disappointment over Canturbury losing yesterday.
