*Official* New Zealand in India 2010

[_Ed_]

Dhoni charging at Vettori. Interesting. Could end bloody brilliantly or very, very badly for us.

 

[Flem274*]

So yes then

WAC z

 

[Meridio]

Dhoni very lucky that inside edge bounded back onto his bat.

 

[Athlai]

The Patel/Laxman "catch" clearly came straight off his pad, are you guys nuts.

In real time thought it edged straight to him, my stream is a pretty small window.

Plus Jeets

Hadlee was 27 when he famously took 6-26 to bowl out England for 64 when they were chasing 137 runs in 1978, Wellington. He had only one really good series behind him.

Sreesanth happens to be 27, playing a home test and has had only one really good series too.

Yeah it seemed to bounce off his pad in an odd way; he must have spongy pads. It definitely didn't hit the bat though.

 

[Noble One]

VVS to do an Australia against NZ

Does anyone else find these sort of comments degrading to Laxman? He shouldn't just be remembered for his performances against Australia (which have been incredible). I have seen a number of other match saving innings from Laxman against other opponents in just as testing circumstances.

These comments are all over Cricinfo, Sofa and Cricketweb.

I think it's out of respect for his awesomeness tbh.

 

[Athlai]

This is a pitch that Martin and Bennett 8.1 overs on.

 

[Jono]

The most awesome finish to this match would be a draw with India unable to bowl Bennett/Martin out.

HAHAHAHAHAH That would seriously be good.

Yeah, absolutely. There's no shame in saving your best for the strongest opposition of your generation.

 

[Flem274*]

Bowl Kane. He will get a wicket.

 

[Craig]

As crazy as this may sound, but we really need another wicket pretty soon.

 

[Prince EWS]

New Zealand are trying to bowl India out with two bowlers and Jeetan Patel.

 

[Jono]

GTFO NZ fans. We could get another 100 and you'd still be in this match.

 

[Flem274*]

I'm getting nervous.

With what we've been through over the years, it's hard to feel really confident at any point before the handshakes.

 

[Teja.]

I really hope Akthar wtfpwns SA in the tests so I can return the favour to Evermind.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Hmm now there's an interesting scorecard to wake up to.

 

[Prince EWS]

I really hope Akthar wtfpwns SA in the tests so I can return the favour to Evermind.

Akthar's not in the Test squad is he?
