My sentiments exactly. How much more of an advantage do you need to get a job done. I actually expect this lot to win world cups....that's the respect, belief and confidence in them. Shambles.

Rain coming for nz's rescue.

You are easily underestimating lower middle order imo. There's still Ashwin to come (no jinx this time)

Is this a mild rain? Can we expect something in the next half an hour?

They'll surely have taken an early lunch now
I mean, India are entitled to bat well on a pretty flat deck, especially given we scored over 400. I don't feel as dire and desperate as other NZ posters might be.
Just a frustration that this side doesn't seem to be a particularly intelligent one. Very few maidens, bowled poorly to Sarfaraz, then obviously missed that significant opportunity because of a lazy/poor throw

You are back again!??

Coming back from the 2nd occultation.
Before going back to the 3rd one, I'm telling you, we are witnessing something historical.

This is why you gotta love test cricket. None of the events of the last couple of days could have been that easily foreseen (despite what CW posters might claim, ha ha). As a NZ fan obviously disappointed in the manner they seem to have shot their load, but again you never know of a possible regroup after this rain break.

I know a lot of posters here don't rate Williamson in India, but we are missing his calmness here. He would be better at slowing things down etc

Sarfaraz will be happy with an early lunch along with Smithy, I would have said Pant as well but he looks like has been on a diet since he has returned.
Moss

Yeah he’s usually a good man to have when the opposition is running away with things. Recalling his calmness when Stoinis was hitting that ridiculous hundred in the NZ ODI and on the verge of stealing the game. And during that Jadeja-Dhoni partnership in the 2019 SF when they were uncomfortably close.

Me too.

What? Do a lot of posters not rate you in India? Why? Personally, I don't even know who you are.
Not to mention the manner in which him and Ross batted in partnership, which I know personally at the time was poorly timed in its pace but ended up being perfect

He could have a chance if he uses the third man region as a legit scoring option like he did today. The worst thing that can happen is if someone tells him you need to play in the V in England.

They steadied the ship with a solid partnership too when we looked like getting the wobbles chasing down India's lead to win the first WTC trophy.

Yeah that's mostly what motivated me to make that post, it's a very productive scoring option in England.

Works for Joe Root, no?
