They're just so good aren't they.

It makes we wonder if Indian fans would class these spinners as a combination the best they've ever had in ODIs.

They've got an impressive amount of variation alone amongst them, on the right pitches no-one is beating this spin attack.

Where is Ian Smith and Simon Doull? Have they been silenced by the BCCI, it just seems like there are only Indian commentators for this final.

Phillips in too early. I always thought he need to bat higher to get more of an impact but when I did a cursory glance the other week most of his scores have come when he's arrived after the 30th over.

Seifert actually had a decent Ford Trophy but played half of it after preferring T20 leagues. If he was serious about it he could be in contention.

He played for the Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash T20 comp last summer., he started impressively and then dropped off like his NZ T20 career.

Now would be the right time to blood a young keeper in for NZ IMO. But I think they will keep Latham till 2027.

We've got 2 exciting young keepers (24 ish) Mitch Hay and Max Chu. Hay has already played some white ball for NZ, while Chu hasn't. They also both have a decent chance of replacing Blundell in the test team.

Latham is also very weak against pace and might struggle in a World Cup in SA. It may also be influenced by if we have a change in coach.

Finally Doull is back on to give some balance, although he usually sucks up to India more than their own commentators.

Only Smithy is a truly pro NZ commentator.

Missed the entire passage from the Rachin dismissal till now. Looks like India have brought their A-game since. Worrying that two of NZ’s better players of spin have gone. Looks like these two will have to take it deep at the expense of really accelerating. I don’t trust the rest of the batting against high quality spin.

The game turned after Shami dropped a catch and stopped the game to get "treatment" #cheats
