New Zealand vs India | 3rd ODI | Auckland |25/01/14

[Bilal7]

Don't remember saying that.

But I willl take Kohli over Amla any day in all 3 formats. He is more valuable because of the way he plays and also Kohli is no choker.

Amla is miles better in tests. In ODI's they're almost equal and Kohli is better in T20s.

 

[Haripotter]

Only 6 batsman in the team is such a crime when its a bouncy track ... What is dhoni thinking ....

Stop this biased selection of ashwin & jadeja... select only one among for gods sake

 

[Ravi.]

Didn' tKohli put pressure on SHarma who had to score quick runs to balance the tuk tuk from the other end?

Required run rate was around 6.5 when Rohit got out. Required run rate was never a problem wickets were because of long tail. Even 8 an over is chasable on this ground.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Funny to see people blaming Kohli for India's collapse. The guy had a rare off day. Cut him some slack

 

[Mr Consistent]

india 113/4 after 23 overs

 

[Ravi.]

Six by Dhoni.

 

[Mr Consistent]

A big hit by mahi :6

 

[Ravi.]

Raina.. Bach gaya.

 

[Mr Consistent]

now :4 by raina

 

[jattafridi]

Nz need only Dhoni wicket to win the series

 

[Haripotter]

All goes back to that bhuvi catch that caused us 25 runs

160 0f 25 overs would have been less pressure than 185 in 25 overs

 

[style_guru]

Game over for India me thinks.

Congrats NZ.

 

[leatherface58]

Shot Dhoni! Southee's short ball not venomous enough.

 

[HASHAM2]

Dhoni Looking Dangerous

Kiwi,s Need Wicket here

otherwise Another Close match

Ashwin should bat at Number-7 ahead of Jadeja

 

[Bilal7]

India can pull this off.

 

[Ravi.]

Nathan comes.. should attack him.

 

[Bilal7]

Raina let off.

 

[HASHAM2]

Raina Umar Akmal Gone in 30s

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Raina let off.

Not for long

 

[Ravi.]

Raina should retire..

 

[Aman]

Raina is a hack, India should cut their losses now.

 

[Aman]

Leaving the trash talk till after the game is finished, I don't want to jinx anything lol

Be afraid

 

[Anfield]

Raina has truly become U Akmal of India. Good for 20s and 30s only now. Raina was one of the better finishers of the game but he has become a non-contributor now.

 

[Bilal7]

Impressed by the Kiwis. Indians seriously struggling oversees. First South Africa and now New Zealand. With Australia and England to come, its not looking good.

 

[Anfield]

Raina should retire..

He has retired.. to the dressing room.

 

[Ravi.]

He has retired.. to the dressing room.

But thats not good enough.

 

[Aman]

All goes back to that bhuvi catch that caused us 25 runs

160 0f 25 overs would have been less pressure than 185 in 25 overs

But but but Ishant isn't playing and Malcolm Aaron is...

Time to give NZ their due's, they've just been better.

 

[IndianWillow]

Woke up late just shocked to read Shami's bowling figures. India manage to unearth Ishant even if he does not play - whoa.

 

[Aman]

Dhoni is the only one standing in the way now...

Need to get him...

 

[Ravi.]

Run out is on the cards.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dhoni playing well here

 

[Justcrazy]

159 / 5 after 30

 

[Justcrazy]

all sites still slow , tough to know real score

 

[Aman]

Sounds like Kohli was worked out pretty easily by Bennett.

 

[psyoptica]

all sites still slow , tough to know real score

they're not slow. they're doing it for a reason.

 

[Aman]

164/5.

151 to win
Rrr 8.31

 

[Ravi.]

164-5 in 32

 

[Aman]

Crowd Attendance: 28,612

 

[Ravi.]

Nathan is getting too much respect.

 

[Justcrazy]

Required Rate is 8.33 now

 

[Aman]

Dhoni would have been gone there had Taylor picked that up

 

[Ravi.]

167-5 in 32.3

 

[Aman]

Run out coming, Ashwin is horrible running between the wickets.

 

[Ravi.]

Ashwin cant run.

 

[Aman]

Who is the next savior for India?..

Umesh Lee?

 

[Justcrazy]

Dhoni needs to take on nathan

 

[Ravi.]

Some tight bowling by Nathan.

 

[Justcrazy]

Ashwin is 11 from 11

 

[Ravi.]

Who is the next savior for India?..

Umesh Lee?

No Ishant will be back lol

 

[Aman]

No Ishant will be back lol

Ishant would have actually been good here with the bounce imo

 

[imran1976]

Big-3 ......

 

[Ravi.]

Req. rate is almost 9 now

 

[leatherface58]

Crowd Attendance: 28,612

Cricket is a dying sport :energetic.

 

[Ravi.]

What a shot by Ash.

 

[Electron]

Wowww... Ashwin got class ! :4

 

[Justcrazy]

India will want Dhoni there till end

 

[Ravi.]

Ash is doing better than Jaddu.

 

[Ravi.]

India 174-5

 

[HASHAM2]

Jadeja is Hack
Ashwin is Batsman

 

[Justcrazy]

Ashwin should look to support Dhoni

 

[Justcrazy]

If India can take this to a stage where 25 required of 2 overs , they will have a chance

 

[Ravi.]

Dhoni has slowed down.

 

[Aman]

Still baffled why India didn't bat first...

We aren't the best chasing team going around..

 

[Aman]

Powerplay time, Anderson in..

 

[Haripotter]

Why r v not able to score of N McCullum

Is he better than our spinners

 

[Ravi.]

Batting powerplay starts.

 

[Justcrazy]

Batting Power Play now

 

[Justcrazy]

India need at least 45 from PP here

 

[London_Lahori]

Kohli 6 runs in 20 balls, wth happened lol

 

[Ravi.]

Dhoni should take risks now. Cant make it too late.

 

[Aman]

Why r v not able to score of N McCullum

Is he better than our spinners

McCullum is actually a very smart bowler who can tie things down the only problem is he never picks up wickets.

 

[Aman]

Dhoni...

He can still do this..

 

[Ravi.]

Anderson is bowling so wickets will surely fall.

 

[Aman]

OUT!!


Game!

 

[Ravi.]

Lol just what i said.

 

[HASHAM2]

Dhoni Gone

Anderson Golden arm work again

 

[Aman]

3-0 boys

 

[Justcrazy]

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt a catch

 

[London_Lahori]

Dhoni

 

[London_Lahori]

Game over series over! Whitewash on the cards!!
