\As for him cheating, name me one cricket official, player, or ex-player who has anything negative to say about his integrity. Tendulkar's a man of his word, a man of honor. That's all there is to it.

Err Gilly for one.

The Gilchrist who phoned Tendulkar and apologized!?

 

[Tupac]

anyways it's getting late and it's been a pleasure as usual doing business with all y'all. Hopefully India can pick up another one when I wake up in the morning.

This Guy Guptill is rare talent for NZ ...

 

[Random Aussie]

Oh god they have a live lovefest discussion on CricIndia about Sachin's hundred......bleh

Probably ban anyone who mentions the "catch"

NZ 1/63 doing well, should be 0/63 though.

 

[Random Aussie]

The Gilchrist who phoned Tendulkar and apologized!?

Yeah he apologised for saying Sachin was nowhere to be found when shaking hands after an Indian loss.

Never apologised for saying Tendulkar changed his testimony at the Harby hearing though. Which was the point of my post.

Guptil closing in on debut fifty here.

New Zealand test team is garbage... ODI team was way better than this garbage.

 

[IronMan2009]

2 days to go 7 wickets in hand. Will Vettori pull off another miraculous innings?

 

[Indian Pretending to To Be Pakistani]

New Zealand test team is garbage... ODI team was way better than this garbage.

so even if india wins this test match or series, nothign great about it?

 

[IronMan2009]

Mills is having a nightmare. 2 poor innings with bat. Ineffective bowling.

Yaar its really great for us, we havent won there since 1976....2nd greatest Indian team to have toured NZ if they manage to win the series.....
Guys common we are not like you who keep winning there every now and then

Greatness and Indian team just doesn't get along.

As long as they keep cheating.

Currently they are much better then Pakistan and a top 3 tea,. so its better to just stay shut.

 

[adit_sh]

Indeed , but thats the truth !

Do you expect us to congratulate India for their great performance in NZ? No way. we are still better than India. who cares about ICC ranking..

Yup, they have about half a top side. In ODI cricket you can get away with a few stars and the rest just contributing a little. At Test level you can't.

That's why they are ranked 4 in ODi and somewhere way down the bottom in Tests.

India in complete control now, will look to wrap this up tomorrow without batting again.

Ryder, Vettori and Taylor the key wickets for India.

But thanks to the bump catch this match will always be a draw in the minds of fair cricket followers

It is a draw for us and the rest of the cricket world now

Why do you have to cheat to win?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Looks like India should win this by an Inns.

The kiwis have played some shocking shots in both inns!

Indias batting showed its class in this match so far.

because ... We Can..

because BCCI owns world cricket

Alright fine by me.

But no more whinging about our cheating if you are going to cheat too.

I've found this to be a really enjoyable test match even though the tempo has been slow at times and one team is currently dominating.

Terrific effort from Zaheer to get a 50, he looked all at sea against O'Brien when he first came in but took excellent toll of rubbish served up by Mills and Franklin who quite frankly have been complete wastes of space in this test. I don't actually think Mills is match fit, he's gonna pay a big price for this performance.

Watching Tendulkar was a treat for the purist, real vintage stuff, never write off a class act.

Looking forward to day 4, will the kiwis show some fight like in the 1st innings? Hope so, though there's only gonna be one winner.
