Hmmm I thought we will be number 1 going into ENG series if we just draw the next match.
We will.

Don't think so. We can't lose Indore or number 1 goes.
Last match ke liye phatta tayar kro ji, we want daddy hundreds![]()
Enough of sissy hundreds on national highway pitches.
Congrats to the ICT and all Indian fans.
No Thanks. Enough of sissy hundreds on national highway pitches.
We want a green and fast track so that Boult, Henri, Wagner, Bhuvi and Shami can rip apart their opposition's batting lineups.
But given the weather conditions in Indore, one can expect a national highway

When did this happen in India last time?
Indore is a turner if I am not wrong.
Let's go for a proper spin track.
Not rank turner nor like the flattish spin.
Whats your idea of a proper spin track?
I would love to see a pitch which is easy to bat on for the first 3 days (flattish, but with a bit of spin and bounce). And it should become very spin friendly from mid day on day 4 onwards.
Ensures 40 wickets, but some 100s as well.
Here we start crying... Isnt it?
Congrats.
It was never a doubt. Only slim chance Kiwis had was to win toss, slog around 350 in 1st innings & get India caught off guard with a 200+ 4th innings total.
This is the worst era of cricket in last 100 years at least when it comes to play spin, therefore I don't see any team, even India to do well batting 2nd on remotely turning tracks.
It's mostly in weekdays & match starts at 12am, hence I hardly could watch the Tests, but going by the comments in PP, I thought the Tests were played on mine fields, particularly the 1st Test - which indicates the understanding of spin play by MODERN fans. If that Kanpur track was a "rank turner", then I am not sure what was the wicket at Delhi when Mingus put 150+ in 10 hours. And that's exactly the standard level of playing spin in MODERN cricket.
Anyone can disagree with modern logic, but I stick to my judgement - 3 wicket keepers of 90s - Mongia, Moin & Kalu will be in my Test world XI of 2016 - SIMPLY as a batsman if I am to play a Test on absolute rank turner.

First or second?[MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION] you said Guptill was not out?
I just checked.
Well impact was umpires call so that was out.
The fact we won as many sessions as we have against the #1 team in their own backyard should say it all. This team is KW or nothing, and he didn't even play in this game.Congrats.

They essentially were the moment we landed.May be, I didn't see that ball by ball - scorecard doesn't tell all the story. But, I don't see NZ competing with India batting second in India. However, India is No. 1 at the end of 2nd Test, not when Kiwis landed there.
I don't follow domestic cricket.[MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION]
1. Since Matt Henry who was Fast 18 months ago is no more fast and is Fast Medium so wouldn't this have been a Good Idea to Bring Lachie Ferguson who is Right Arm Fast and now has decent Fc Experience ?
2. Doesn't Todd Astle deserve a Test Comeback after a very Decent Fc Season on Nz wickets plus a Tenfer for NZ A Team few months ago ?
3. Collin Munro Averages 48.20 in FC Cricket with 9 Fc hundreds with a highest score of 281. He can play Test Cricket the way Adam Gilchrist played Test Cricket. Why doesn't NZC select him for Test Cricket ?
