***Official*** India in New Zealand 2013/14

[Zinzan]

Dhoni could change this so quickly with a bit luck.

 

[Bahnz]

Boult's lost his length again. Too short or too full in this over.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Dhoni doesn't have a clue how to bat in a test match does he?

 

[Athlai]

Boult's lost his length again. Too short or too full in this over.

Trying too hard for the miracle ball. Watching Southee bowl an over will do him a world of good imo.

 

[Daemon]

Sure but they have themselves to blame. BCCI administrators aren't there playing and from all accounts, the individual players aren't advocating for it - in fact SRT and Dhoni were openly against it.

Pretty sure I recall Dravid being for it.

How do you expect a player who's spot in the team depends on these ****s to advocate DRS anyways other than the proper channels (discreetly so the public won't know about it)? BCCI has made entire boards bend to their whims, a young player is ****ed if he tries something funny by going to the media or something.

 

[Contra]

well this should be fun.

 

[Zinzan]

Good tactic from India here. Counter attack for 30 mins and suddenly it could be 80 needed.

 

[OverratedSanity]

These two just need to forget this is a test match and play it like an ODI.

Jadeeeejaaaa... Glad he's doing just that

 

[Athlai]

What an unbelievably confident shot.

 

[Cabinet96]

Wold love it if Jadeja got out to a stupid shot.

 

[Blocky]

This is where I question Baz and his captaincy. The way Dhoni and jadeja are looking to play this would be the perfect time to use and in and out field, but he very rarely if ever plays that sort of fielding setup.

 

[benchmark00]

Does Zaheer still not give a **** about his batting like he did a couple of years back in Australia? If so, India are in big trouble.

 

[Pothas]

No other explanation for actually cheering on a bad decision in an awesome test match. WHy anyone woud enjoy a genuinely awesome cricket contest having a bad decision is beyond me.

Telling someone how to enjoy something is worse.

 

[Bahnz]

This is the right way to play for India. They went too defensive after Kohli's dismissal and allowed NZ to crawl back into the match.

Need to offer up a single so that the batsmen can swap ends.

 

[Jarquis]

This is gonna be fun

 

[Blocky]

Get Wagner back on. He'll take Dhoni and Jadeja and we can all get out of here.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Wold love it if Jadeja got out to a stupid shot.

That's an absolute given. Just depends whether he gets out on 15 or 50.Could make a big difference

 

[ajdude]

dhoni is gonna turn it on here he's not the best finisher in odis of all time for no reason

yeah the four fielders outside the circle here should work in his favour.

 

[Cabinet96]

Does Zaheer still not give a **** about his batting like he did a couple of years back in Australia? If so, India are in big trouble.

Yeah, first innings dismissal was basically a repeat of most of his 11/12 dismissals.

was pretty **** in south africa iirc.
