Jesus, they've lost two wickets. The way you guys were talking I thought they were six down.

Kyle Mills is batting 9. No need to panic.

Maybe I'd need to support a test side to understand this unbounded pessimism.

Taylor is out - I thought we were good at ODIs this is two failures in a row. Is the pitch difficult or something.

This isn't even going to be a day nighter at this rate. Just a day game.

And it's all over.

India win.

NZ head home tomorrow. That's Andy Moles on the laptop booking the tickets.

****ing pathetic. Don't even know why I support this rat**** ****ing team anymore.

No wonder New Zealand lose sometimes if their number five batsmen are walking to the crease thinking "ITS OVER ALL IS LOST WE MIGHT AS WELL KILL OURSELVES NOW".

****ing joke if we can't beat an India without Gambhir, Sehwag and Khan.

Might as well just skip the Champions Trophy.

But seriously, the game is nowhere near a forgone conclusion. Sri Lanka was in basically the same situation last game and look what happened.

:laugh: No..

But it's a bit of a losing mentality. As you point out, it's not like the Kiwis have to look back very far for an example of a team winning after losing a few early wickets.

Yeah, in all seriousness, I'm not too worried yet. I think if Bond and Mills bowl as well as we know they can to an Indian lineup that's missing Sehwag and Gambhir, we could possibly defend something as low as 200-210.

Gotta get there first.

Elliott has to score about 30 two times in a row and Oram has to score more than 10. What are the odds on that?

Guptill's got yet another start with a couple of lovely shots. Can he keep going this time?
