[Strike Rate]

oh boy indian trundlers are being treated like..........

 

[Saeed]

143/3 now. McCullum reached his 50 with 2 fours.

 

[cricf@n]

135/3

Thanks alot

 

[Saeed]

Terrible ball by jedja and dispatched for four.

 

[mithun_minhas]

India already lost this Test match. They are mentally shot now.

 

[OZGOD]

Kane pulverising Sir Jaddu

 

[OZGOD]

3/153

 

[mithun_minhas]

Zak bhai, please retire.

Hard to see this guy trundle like this. He has become a left handed Praveen Kumar without the swing.

 

[OZGOD]

When the ball isn't swinging Zak is just too hittable.

 

[OZGOD]

125kmh bouncer is just a hit-me ball.

 

[Saeed]

NZ scored 52 runs in first season, so far in this season its 113.

 

[Saeed]

4 by Kane.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Zak getting smashed like a street trundler.

 

[OZGOD]

LMAO Hobbits are going at 4.8rpo the last 10 overs

 

[Saeed]

Partnership almost 150, looks like they will bat long and big.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Can India outsource their bowling to Pak or SA or Aus??

Zak, Ishant have no belief in themselves that they can run through the side.

Jaddu is a spinner and not suited for these conditions.

 

[OZGOD]

India have completely wasted their start

 

[mithun_minhas]

125 kmph bouncer from Ishant :AAG

 

[leatherface58]

When there is Indian bowling, there is hope.

 

[EarthBoltX]

What the heck happened?
India lost the plot...

 

[Strike Rate]

Where is BlackThunder guy gone missing

 

[mithun_minhas]

What the heck happened?
India lost the plot...

Ishant & Zak happened

 

[90MPH]

This was a 150 all out pitch I reckon. Def not above 200.

India squandered a big chance to take some early advantage.

When India bat, it will look like a 150 pitch.

Can't blame batsmen. Its the bowlers that always ruin everything for Test side.

 

[Saeed]

Partnership 155.

 

[siddharth]

Normal service resumes for Indian bowling i guess..after the initial blood..Doesn't look good at all for India..

 

[Iffitheking]

201 for 3

 

[Saeed]

Horrible bowling by Jedja, why is this guy primary spinner of India?

 

[Justcrazy]

what is the pitch like ?

 

[Indiana Jones]

I'm enjoying the hammering.

 

[Saeed]

what is the pitch like ?

Green, was swinging miles earlier.

 

[Justcrazy]

will 300 be challenging enough for Indian batting here ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Green, was swinging miles earlier.

Toss would have been crucial then.

 

[Justcrazy]

all the sites showing the game delayed 15 mins

 

[Saeed]

Even I am getting angry from this pathetic bowling.

 

[Saeed]

214/3 after 57 overs.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Indians either bowl short at 120k's or bowl on pads or bowl half volleys.

Sure NZ played well, but this bowling is just pathetic.

Bowlers are just hoping that batsmen make mistakes.

 

[Justcrazy]

Guys who are watching live , keep updating

 

[Justcrazy]

I think India would be happy to keep Kiwis up to 300 here. that will keep India in the hunt.

 

[Saeed]

4 by kane to jedja.

the case most of the time w ith Indian bowlers. Rely on batsmen to do build all the pressure.

 

[Saeed]

6 by mac to jadeja.

 

[Iffitheking]

100 with 6... what a player BM

 

[Indiana Jones]

Brilliant brilliant 100

 

[mithun_minhas]

100 for McCullum.

More humiliation for Indian trundlers.

Just stop this boxing match. India cannot take anymore punches.

 

[Indiana Jones]

225/3

 

[DW44]

I haven't been keeping up with India's test cricket but how the hell is mighty and tall Ishant Sharma still playing tests?

 

[Saeed]

Kane william needs 5 more for his century, partnership 195 now.

 

[Inswinger]

Bhuvi Kumar no longer the next great hope? Umesh Yadav also done?

 

[Justcrazy]

It would be interesting to see how Sodhi bowls in this Test match , huge game for him.

 

[Justcrazy]

Maccullum Hundred

 

[Inswinger]

Sidharth Monga having at dig at India's bowlers.

This is McCullum's eighth Test hundred, and third against India. Averages 55 against them, scores a hundred every third Test against them. His best has also come against India. Tell you what, there won't be many batsmen around who don't love India

 

[mithun_minhas]

It would be interesting to see how Sodhi bowls in this Test match , huge game for him.

He will be taken to the cleaners.

But expect NZ bowlers to look like the reincarnation of 80's Windies ATG's.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Bowling darts at 125k's is Ishant.

 

[Iffitheking]

Fearless cricket from Newzealanders...

 

[Justcrazy]

How good is Kiwi lower order ?

 

[mithun_minhas]

Fearless cricket from Newzealanders...

Against Indian Trundlers?

 

[Saeed]

4 by Kane, he is on 99 now.

 

[Indiana Jones]

Ishanth 124k bouncer...��

 

[Executioner]

Everytime I see Indian trunders, I feel like Rubel/Shahadat are bowling

 

[mithun_minhas]

Easy to play Pull when the pace is 122k's.

Commies going gaga over how great the pull shot was

 

[Iffitheking]

Against Indian Trundlers?

heheh South African should learn from them...

 

[Justcrazy]

He will be taken to the cleaners.
.

personally I think Kiwis should have played another all rounder .

Sodhi should be groomed by been played against countries like SA , Poms , Pakistan , Zimbabwe etc

 

[Inswinger]

How good is Kiwi lower order ?

Southee and Sodhi can bat a bit. Other bowlers can also hang around for 10-15 runs.

 

[HASHAM2]

IShant Still Indian Best Test Bowler overall

Dhoni has alot of Trust on Ishant

Zaheer is Finshed

 

[Iffitheking]

200 partnerships...

 

[Executioner]

229/3.

Thanks

Trouble for India. Is the pitch flat or that Indian pacers have not been up to the mark? A flat pitch means draw, sporty means NZ will be favourites although there is a saying, never judge a pitch until both teams bat.

 

[Justcrazy]

Indian bowlers should pitch the ball up , even if they are driven.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Jadeja looking very very docile and bowling dollies on leg side.

 

[Saeed]

Century for kane.

 

[leatherface58]

Kane-O feasting on some high quality pace, seam and swing bowling.

 

[Iffitheking]

Well done Williamson...

 

[Justcrazy]

Why NZ are always ignoring Vettori , he would have been invaluable here

 

[Mr Consistent]

:century for wlliamsone

 

[Justcrazy]

Kane Williamson Ton

 

[Indiana Jones]

Kw 100. Impressed with his attitude both in Odis and tests.

 

[Saeed]

Thanks

No trundlers had them in control at 30/3 but after that it was all horrible bowling.
