New Zealand (259 & 255) beat India (156 & 245) convincingly in the 2nd Test by 113 runs to seal a 3-Test series victory (2-0) with one match remaining

[Devadwal]

Another one bite the dust .

Third wicket for Sundar

 

[Croma]

Good review by Rohit

 

[BouncerGuy]

What a collapse this is...

 

[Croma]

Daniel Vettori has come out to bat... Can he survive?

 

[Devadwal]

India win the toss and bat they get bowled out for under 50.

Next match Kiwis bat first and grind India into the dust.

Pakistan meanwhile are on fire.

Oh how the tables turn

NZ 204/6 on a decent pitch
ENG 193/6 on a rank Turner .

As i said india can get back in the game any time .

 

[Croma]

Come on Rohit, Ball is old... Unleash Bumrah now.

 

[kron]

Father Bumrah with only 170 wickets at the age of 30 is ahead of Anderson who has 700 wickets.

The Indian delusion needs to be studied.

He is the father of all pakistani bowlers except wasim akram though.

Waqar is non lethal. Like a non lethal spray.

But yes wasim is da king.

Too bad that time didn’t arrive in Bengaluru.

He might even be your father. I would suggest going for some DNA Tests.

Why can't bumrah get new ball wickets. Can't control new ball swing hey

 

[kron]

Are you sure you are mamoon. Real mamoon wouldn't write like this. Let's be honest.

Yes he is the father of all pakistani bowlers except wasim.

 

[kron]

Actually wasim is not the king mamoon. His average away from home in senai is average. Compared to bumrah. Bumrah just needs to last another 4 5 years I guess. Not too hard I think.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Scores almost identical in both tests @ Rawalpindi & Pune

Imran is bumrahs dad also

 

[kron]

Imran is bumrahs dad also

No not really. Imran is 3rd.

 

[Devadwal]

Santner is playing attacking cricket.

 

[Ab Fan]

Mitchell is one of the better players of spin in that line-up though. He needs to deliver because he was disappointing in Sri Lanka too

Failed though. That middle order is a bit weak after Ravindra. But that is the case with past NZ team too in these conditions.

 

[kron]

World's dumbest captain award goes to???
Rohit sharma.
Congrats rohit.

You cannot be dumber than him. Clap everyone.

 

[Croma]

230 - 6

Please bring Bumrah. I am feeling sleepy.. yaaaaaaaaaaawn

 

[Devadwal]

No wicket is coming

 

[aboveandbeyond]

No not really. Imran is 3rd.

Dream on.
He owned India's bats.
In fact as a allrounder, he's even kapil dad

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Jasprit ....with a wicked spell of reverse will knock them over...... loading....

He played vs a weak indian side. Calm down. Relax on the kool aid.

 

[kron]

He seems to be without any good partner in crime. Akash has been a bit bad today. Still persist with him.

No shami etc and harshit mayank not included.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

7 down , Philips gone

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

His hairstyle is similar to Shami... maybe thats why..

And Mukesh Kumar

 

[kron]

Power of the 2 cholan brothers. Lineage of tamil warriors.

Is sundar better than most pakistani spinners barring qadir ?

 

[kron]

And Mukesh Kumar

Mukesh trundler kumar

 

[Devadwal]

Southee catch was dropped on zero. Bw he can smashed us

 

[kron]

Mukesh trundler
Avesh trundler

Arshdeep is good
Khaleel good. Better than all pakistani pacers currently
Mayank solid needs exp
Harshit very good
I still think akashdeep will bounce back. Give him time.

 

[gani999]

Nice to see both India and Pakistan playing well.

 

[followed]

So as expected india produces the worst pitches.
No wonders that no touring team wins in India.
These dustbowls are awful.

Always liked sundar.
Excellent batsman too.

Before this match i didn't rate Sundar bowling but he is bowl well here.

He is not a bad option for BGT because he is very handy with bat also.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Stay on topic and talk about the match Guys. No personal attacks

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Good competition is going on between Indian and Pakistani spinners at the moment.

 

[Devadwal]

Good competition is going on between Indian and Pakistani spinners at the moment.

But one is rank Turner and another is decent pitch.

 

[MP2011]

Sundar! What a champ!

 

[Croma]

Fantastic bowling from Sundar...

 

[Josh]

But one is rank Turner and another is decent pitch.

Yeah the pitch is fine in Pune. Kukabura has got old in Rawalpindi

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Seems Washington Sundar was brilliant today. But was there any specific reason why he was picked over Axar? Was it because of the left-handers in the NZ line-up?

 

[Croma]

How many bowleds? To take 7 wickets when the bowling attack contains Ash and Jad is quite a feat

 

[Josh]

A Sundar performance by washing was bowling superb to right handers too.

 

[Croma]

Seems Washington Sundar was brilliant today. But was there any specific reason why he was picked over Axar? Was it because of the left-handers in the NZ line-up?

My guess is... he is being prepared for Australian series. He was spectacular there last time (with the bat)

 

[RamLakhan]

If Sundar can do this consistently, he can be that lone spinner in overseas tests! His batting can be developed and can be trusted more than Jadeja! But India are slowing losing their pace bowling strength (in tests)...

 

[jnaveen1980]

He just had a first class game where he made 153 batting at 3 and took 6 wickets. Form is one reason.

Fair enough. But I don't understand how Axar misses out so regularly. He is an outstanding bowler in India and on rank-turners.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

@CrIc_Mystique
@Devadwal
@Nikhil_cric

I feel he changed his arm coming down angle (from what I saw long time back) also more snap of wrists, U can also make out his follow through is improved. Lastly he seems to have developed the one that goes thru with the arm & angle much like a right handed version of dan vettori ...

 

[Rajdeep]

Ati Sundar bowling from Washington DC

Once Ash & Jad retires, Wash & Axar can replace them easily with back up spinner being Kuldeep Yadav.

Indian cricket in good hands.

 

[Raja111]

Axar should play in place of jadeja.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

How is the pitch behaving?

Excellent bowler. He is tall too iirc.

Kotian also 6 foot. Good bowler.

Tbf axar did bad vs australia last bgt series in India. That's why he got dropped. He batted really well though

Sundar and axar play both

Then 3 pacers.

 

[kron]

And putrevus from icf. I know you lurk here. Don't cry now that sundar has picked 7 fer. Lol called him a one dimensional player. 2 bit player haha

 

[sweep_shot]

Kiwis needed 400-450 probably.

Anyway, they can still bounce back. Need to bowl well.

 

[Rajdeep]

Waisay its amazing how India have like for like replacements for Ashwin and Jadeja just waiting to come into the team.

Credit must be given to Indian selectors. Sundar was no where in reckoning but they brought him mid series understanding the weakness of opposition. Terrific stuff

Never heard of them but more the merrier

Yeah but one bad series shouldn't take away from his performances in past 3 years.

SOuthee takes out ROhit with a Banger!

Rohit is gone.

Rohit should retire gracefully .

Sundar literally destroyed a team in ranji. Scored 150 something and got 3 fer.

Rohit's poor form continues.

Southee has dismissed Rohit 14th times I think.

Agreed rohit is finished. It's depressing watching him bat.

He should really quit tests but he will keep on playing. And why not? Selectors don't have guts. What can they do

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

What a freakng jaffa by Southee

 

[kron]

Anyway friends I am not watching india bat. Gives me high BP. I will check later. Good luck

 

[MP2011]

Absolutely no foot movement from Rohit.
