*Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

State Captain
Really well bowled by Ashwin. It wasn't just natural variation. He'd been mostly bowling with a lot of top spin and the previous ball really bounced, so he bowled that one with the seam for 100% sidespin to try and get it to keep lower. Worked a treat - pinged on the back foot.
That was the undercutter ig.

International Debutant
I did love the goateed swing king. Serious hoop
Yeah, Doull had some great moments when he wasn't injured. That seven wicket bag against India at the Basin and man of the match when the Black Caps won their first test in South Africa stand out.
 

Moss

International Captain
A bit of a microcosm of Will Young's career that innings. Look serene and classy, and then just get out in a fairly innocuous way
Not the first top order bat to get worked over by Ashwin so cleanly so 20-plus is fine for this particular innings, but that was a terrible review. This and Conway missing the inside edge were both giveaways.

India are historically bad at chasing. Realistically anything over 200 puts NZ in a dominant position. 250+ is virtually impossible for this batting lineup on this deck.

Danny Morrison was a better bowler than Simon Doull but Doull is the better commentator.

Hadlee was a terrible commentator and our best bowler, he just let his bowling do the talking.
