***Official India in New Zealand***

I don't know. India haven't looked at their best so far and two quick wickets tommorow/today (depending on when I get this post out) exposes the tail.
Yea, I think NZ should be aiming at keeping to lead to 50-60 runs. I think that's achievable if the conditions early in the morning helps them. They really only need to break this pair, then you have Dhoni and everyone below, all of whom will constantly give chances.

the test is nicely balanced at this point, considering Ind could be batting last .... the run out of Sehwag has made this even as if he had fired, Ind would have been in a comfortable position .... no need to say that the team that takes the initiative on Day 3 would have the advantage. considering how experienced India line up is, I expect them to put pressure on NZ with both the bat and the ball

An okay day for India .It would have been perfect if we had finished with a score of 300.Got too slow after Dravid's departure .Laxman was unbelievably slow and most of his runs were edges .

This is why I hate power cricket, shots like those two should be rewarded. That was sublime, and normally I don't get that way about batting.

Shocking start this morning. Seems like everything is either short and wide, a half-volley or down leg. Well that's the impression I'm getting from the radio and cricinfo anyway.

India to make 500+.

Ridiculous misjudgement from Yuvraj there. He can't leave when he should, and leaves when he shouldn't. The hallmark of a non-Test quality player.




And there is Dhoni trying to have his regular brain fart.

Why are you guys listening on radio from within New Zealand? It's not televised?
University. 90 people competing for one TV. Atm we're Rugby 22/7 with Lost/Greys Anatomy/some random show thrown in.

Martin bowling nicely now. Would be nice if he could do this more often...ohhhhhhhhh damn edge fell short.

Good century here by Sachin. Those two cover drives were as good as anyone has ever played them.

Doesn't matter though, he needs to carry his bat through, and take the score past 400.

Bizarre bowling change.

Wonderful innings from Sachin though, some absolutely stunning shots today. His 92nd ton for India!
