[sensible-indian-fan]

Regardless we still need 400.

Shambolic batting.

 

[Crafty_Indian]

India would have liked to have Ishant on this pitch though!!!

No 300 is fine.

KW effect.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Good batting Saha.

This is still a good batting track.

There may be tough periods but the pitch isn't hard to play.

Kanpur turned big at stages. On and off.

Here...no such indication.

At this stage, 300 itself is a huge deal for us.

 

[Aman]

I don't know who is going to score the runs for us..

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Thank God day over.

NZ's day.

 

[Aman]

Thank God day over.

NZ's day.

Don't worry, generally we put up a good fight in the first few days before a session or two on late day 2 to early day 3 has us chasing the game again.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Maybe the seam movement and inconsistent bounce may make it hard for NZ.

Dunno.

Don't be so negative.

Seriously, this is a different situation. Its not spinning. Whatever little spin there is, its slow spin. NZ could do very well here.

Not being negative, this team has been in decline since England, and even there they botched an easy 2-0 series victory. Had England on the ropes twice but let them back in the game.

 

[Bilal7]

NZ's best chance to win a game in India, even without Kane. Have to bowl India out within 20 runs tomorrow and then Guptil, Latham Taylor have to score some big runs.

India messed up big time. Only good aspect of India is, nz will bat last which is pathetic for India because it is sheer due to luck and not something that was earned.

Kohli is useful at toss atleast.

Letham, Taylor and Ronchi yes, Guptil no chance.

 

[TestMatch]

This is an okay score now.
