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

[Flem274*]

just watched the wickets on 3 news. good view of the wagner ball. definitely a no ball, but afaic checking for those when a wicket happens but not caring every other ball is rubbish. just terrible all round really apart from the bowling itself. similar happened to watling as well. rahane's big inside edge also just as terribad as the anderson call. this test is just a great advertisement for why we need drs in some form really. i don't really care about the human element of decisions or whatever it is traditionalists argue, i just want the decisions to be right.

the match could have been so different. india may have cruised it, or maybe anderson would have made a big ton instead of just 77.

Nah, we couldn't have won without Bahnz losing his life savings.

Whadda posta!

Stats - New Zealand pace attack on a high | Cricket News | New Zealand v India | ESPN Cricinfo

In their last three Tests, New Zealand's pace bowlers have taken 59 out of 60 wickets; the only wicket to have eluded them is that of West Indies No. 11 Tino Best, who was dismissed by Ish Sodhi in the first innings in Hamilton.

Wow @ Shikhar Dhawan becoming just the second Indian opener after Sunil Gavaskar -to score a fourth-innings century in an overseas Test

 

[Athlai]

Don't see Wagner getting dropped or Andre Adams getting the call-up, myself.

Andre Adams is English obviously.

 

[Prince EWS]

Andre Adams is English obviously.

CPL says no.

 

[GingerBreadMan]

As much as I'd like them to, I can't see them changing a winning side (apart from Taylor)

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well done NZ. Becoming a useful team now. Think we played them at right time as they'd beat us now.

 

[Bahnz]

bah - I deleted that too. After I posted it I thought it might be a sore point for him. sorry bahnz.

Heh, no problem but it was an uncomfortable amount ( though thankfully nowhere near as much as I won off the drawn test at last year's Eden Park match) and I think I'm going to close down my betting account with the tab now. From now on, you're on your own boys!

There goes our winning streak

nz to revert back to losing every game now darlingface has pulled out.

bought out by the bcci imo.

Hey I bet big on the draw at Eden Park and the loss at lords. My attempts to bet NZ to success have always had distinctly sketchy results

Dhoni you ****ing ****, can you ever give credit to the opposition for playing well?

well played by New Zealand on another good win..india, the run continues...i had to laugh as read a comment from someone on another forum that said india actually won as they were beaten by the umpires not New Zealand...ha ha..funniest thing i read all day...dont worry india, soon your away matches will be played in mumbai...

 

[Energetic]

New Zealand are a rapidly improving team. Youngsters are very impressive. They should win this series and thoroughly deserves too. India are overrated in my view.

It's amazing to think how different test history would be if DRS had been around, and how badly it's missed now when it isn't used. Hopefully the BCCI will see that at least some of the howlers (eg Anderson & Rahane's dismissals) could have been avoided & change their position.

Inevitably there will be some umpiring mistakes in the next test too, it's so infuriating to know the DRS could possibly correct them but isn't being used.

btw. Great to see Wagner transfer some of his FC promse to the test arena, seems such a hard worker I'm glad he was rewarded.

Overrated by who? No one rates them and they just almost won a test despite giving up a 300 run first innings lead.

Aren't they 2nd in the ICC rankings?

Just saying.
