Honors even but NZ still the only team that can win. Not sure how to feel about that.

NZ will be hoping it's an overcast morning and the ball does a bit. Great day's cricket, excellent fight from both teams! 6:11 am and I'm done.

Lots of 1 and 3 imo. I think the batting has been good for most of the match.

slow outfield too not giving full value for shots.

Outfield's been surprisingly brisk considering the amount of rain. Overhead conditions and high-quality bowling haven't allowed batsmen to cash in even after being set.

Yeah it's been good cricket, worthy of a final, which makes the likely lack of a result all the more frustrating. This could have been a truly classic game with just another couple of sessions of play.
NZ had a very conscious strategy of grinding down the Indian bowling which looked pretty good when they were 100 for 2 but not so great when they lost some quick wickets. In retrospect they may wonder if they should have attacked more early on to throw the Indian bowlers off their plans especially since time was likely to be a factor. But overall both teams have been decent with bat and ball.

Whatever it takes!!!
Another excellent day of cricket. Massive first session tomorrow. It looks there is very little chance of India winning so hopefully they fight back again and prove everyone wrong.
Bowling, catching, batting (for the most part) have all been top class. Worthy final except the weather. ****ing England!!!

In case India gets out in 45 overs tomorrow with a lead of around 180, will NZ go for the chase in 50 overs ? And can they be bowled out within 50 overs ? ?
If they don’t go for 180 in 50 overs in a final then they might as well retire
