Seriously, I don't know what more to say. OK, it was a good delivery but man, you gotta keep those out. NZ is beyond bad. I can't remember the last time we sucked this bad and believe me we've sucked pretty bad through the years.

Yadav to Guptill, OUT, unplayable! Guptill could do nothing about that. A quick bowler's delight. Fuller than a good length - quite the ideal length. Guptill prods, played the line, didn't account for swing. Umesh got it to move away just enough, like the previous delivery, to beat Guptill's outside edge. Clatters into off stump. Not sure if that was bad batting or just sensational bowling. He did see a bit of swing off the previous delivery. Anyway, Guptill has failed again.
Cricinfo commentary insightful as usual.

They're 1 down.

Looking at replays of Guptill's dismissal reminds me of how Chris Martin used to get bowled. He'd completely play down the wrong line, his feet all over the place and get bowled having missed the ball by a mile. How can a guy with an average over 40, and at one time considered the best white ball player in the world, get out like that?!

Obviously something is rotten within New Zealand cricket.

Stat on screen wrt India and NZ playing 32 ODIs at neutral venues, splitting 15 each with 2 no results. Beautiful.

"Fuller than a good length - quite the ideal length" - what the hell is this.
Beyond the fullness of a good length lies a meadow yonder of grass and pitch where ideals float through the souls of fanboi veins and get teletyped on the cricinfo live page.
