Actually, per cricinfo, that audio feed is also available in Europe. I'm listening to that while watching TV on mute.

He has bowled a bit slower than usual in this series. In his better spells he has gone at about 85 kph on average. And been all the better for it.

I try to keep a note at bowling speeds of Harbhajan (I don't know why), and I'm pretty sure he has been about 90kph average. Haven't written it down, so I could be wrong, but I'm pretty confident about that. I think the wind has really helped him this game.

Ingram since FC recall in 2005 has been averaging something ridiculous.You're probably right that they won't drop McIntosh yet. He has a 100, which is more than most can say.
Ingram is the only remaining NZ domestic opener who's had a decent record for a couple of seasons but hasn't played for NZ yet. On that basis they'll probably 'give him a go' and he'll fail just like Papps, Bell, Redmond and McIntosh.
(notice absence of Craig Cumming's name)
I can't see him averaging more than 25-35 at test level though. Great eye, but no footwork. Could be a Trescothick or Sehwag, and doesn't have the short ball weakness that McIntosh has, but sadly I see him being a bit of a Sinclair. He'd score like 2 hundreds, 3 fifties and 10 scores under 10 in 20 innings of tests if he was given the chance imo. As big a fan as I am, I'm skeptical that Ingram is the answer.
He kicks McIntosh, Papps and Bells arse though.

That wasn't out. That has hit the ground.

You didn't need that many replays. It's not 'doubt', it's simply not out.

This one? You could clearly see it through his fingers and touching the ground.

It's given not out. Right decision.

Thanks SS. I am at uni today and following the game on cricinfo. May head home in a bit though to catch the last session.
