*Official* India Tour of New Zealand 2019

[Athlai]

Southee gets dropped all the time these days, he’s dropped now!

 

[Athlai]

Not even kidding, when Kohli hit that 4 NZ went from 3.90 to win out to 4.60

4.70now

 

[OverratedSanity]

Rayudu is such a hack.

 

[vcs]

Kohli not looking as fluent as usual. Rohit's wicket was important.

 

[Borges]

India is going to end up with a sub par total here.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Huge day with the bat for the 2 Colins if they want to start at the CWC

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Need to get Kohli soon then bowl some dots to MSD

 

[Zinzan]

Further proof you can't rely on more than 3-4 overs from CDG, unless it's rare seaming conditions. Like Sodhi he's a more effective T20 bowler than ODI one. You can go at between 8-9 an over in T20s, but you cannot afford to consistently go between 6-7 in ODIs. I'm surprised his ODI ER to date is 5.16. I'm sure that will look very different against quality opposition.

Edit: Even more surprised to see he's 4.48 against SA in 25 overs.

 

[Borges]

They are doing fine, not letting India run away with this. 330 is very chaseable here.

Against your spinners who bamboozled us in Napier? Remember they did it in the air as opposed to off the pitch.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

8 overs for 37 is standing out like a shining light from Sodhi today, even if he hasn't taken any wickets.

8 overs for 37 is standing out like a shining light from Sodhi today, even if he hasn't taken any wickets.

His figures flatter him if we're being honest. Bowled 2-3 long-hops which deserved to be put into the stands & got away with them. Could easily have been 0-55 off 8.

 

[Zinzan]

Good bouncer that, both line & height.

 

[Athlai]

Kohli what a spud

 

[Athlai]

Lol at the fans knocking over that white picket fence in desperation to get a kohli selfie

 

[Zinzan]

His figures flatter him if we're being honest. Bowled 2-3 long-hops which deserved to be put into the stands & got away with them. Could easily have been 0-55 off 8.

Tbf on Sodhi, his last two overs were excellent.

 

[straw man]

One of them was hit for six and apart from that he has been good. Yet more evidence that we should strongly consider playing both he and Santner together.

 

[NZTailender]

Tbf on Sodhi, his last two overs were excellent.

He started woefully but that was also during when most of the carnage was happening. He came back superbly.

 

[NZTailender]

And now Bracewell to ensure they get to 300.
