What the heck we're just gifting away as many as EIGHT runs every over!!
 
Southee spraying it around like an uncontrolled fire hose now. Where are the length balls outside off stump?
 
Men and women reading this thread: if you are reading this message you love Test cricket.
 
Southee too straight. He's not bowling to his field
 
Minnowitis...

Australia would have wrapped it up.

No they wouldn't. I remember one occasion against VVS Laxman recently when they were clueless going down to the wire, just like this.

India were like 8 or 9 down or something.

That's VVS.

Jadeja and MSD are not VVS.
 
RR of 6 the last 10. Enzed getting hammered
 
Macca, stop looking at Sodhi. He's not the guy needed in this situation AT ALL!!
 
This is NZ mate they only have 500 people playing cricket in the whole country. Everyone else is playing rugby. They don't have world class fast bowlers by the dozen like you guys.

I was talking about their leg spinner, Sodhi. He lacks control and doesn't spin the ball much. Nz must be better off sending him back to domestic cricket otherwise Indians could kill him mentally.

We also don't have dozen world class fast bowlers. All up and coming are unproven. Hope they do become world class in coming years.
 
Wagner will have to come on soon.

Can't go to Anderson, Sodhi or Williamson.
 
Bowlers don't know what to bowl , too many leg side deliveries
 
Six :facepalm:

Expected I guess.. we were never going to win a close one.
 
India will have choked if they lose it from here, only 89 left.

We need a hat trick here.

Edit: make that 85!!

Edit: 83. :(

We would never get into a position where we had a 300+ lead going into batting again and then fold for 100. That second innings collapse may yet come back to haunt you. And Sir Jaddu is a hack, not a Very Very Special player. He can cowlash a few though. Spincters tightening time for you guys now I think.

:6 for Jaddu
 
Got him YEAH!!

Told you he's a hack who'll fall sooner rather than later.
 
Yes you can. Just need to get lucky. How else do you think Afridi has scored runs opening in Test cricket?

Afridi actually played pretty sensibly in tests. The famous ton he got in Chennai was scored against the likes of Kumble. He didn't attack the new ball as far as I remember. Waited for spinners to come on and then changed gears.
 
Dhoni still there, guessing india will keep going on like this
 
wow! what a game this has been so far, one shot too many there by jadeja.
 
I can hear McMillan in the background with the mikes off during the break saying "he didn't have to do this! he already had 5 on the over" and Sunny saying "yes he got carried away"
 
Zaheer should swing, he won't last blocking against a newish ball.
 
Mccullum's trick of delaying proceedings have worked,very smart from the kiwi skipper
 
You really comparing Steyn, Philander, Morkel and Kalliszz :28: to Shami, Zak, MIGHTY AND TALL ISHANT and Sir Jaddu?

I know, but I was just pointing out the obvious exception in your point.
 
If each of the tail gets 15 and MS gets 33 more they will win it
