If Wagner can improve his consistency and bowl these aggressive, dangerous spells more often, how good will our seam attack be? Exciting times.140kmh. Wagner has finally found his radar in his 13th match.
Eh, NZ batting is still 10x more reliable than Indian bowling right now.failing us being shout out for under 100 we're looking good
i still don't trust nz batting not to do that ftr, even at home. hopefully 200/3 or so is what happens.

We rely so much on Southee and Boult that injury for either of them would be utter disaster which probably factored into the decision to bat again. Considering there's so much time left in the test I'm happy to play it safe to protect those two.Think I'd have gone with enforcing the follow-on. I know Southee's got through 19 overs and Boult 17, but Wagner, Sodhi and Anderson only bowled 22 between them. It's still only the morning session and I'm sure with them all bowling well they would find the gas in the tank to burst India's hopes in the second innings today. The way India batted here with such scrambled brains and questionable methods I'd have looked to get right back into them and keep them under real pressure.

im pretty happy for rudds and fulton to cement their spots and have promising guys like latham in the wings. i don't think that's how it will pan out though.
Well that was a worthwhile discussion....Any runs from our openers, in any situation, is a good thing.
