***Official*** India in New Zealand 2013/14

[ohnoitsyou]

Wow the pitch is remarkably browner already. **** off commentators, stop beating me

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Poor stuff from the best fielding side in international cricket.

etc etc

 

[Athlai]

Awful awful drop

 

[ajdude]

world's premier fielding side

 

[straw man]

This is a very important innings for McCullum - absolutely cannot afford any more wickets and would be really helpful if he can just soak up another 10 overs. Hasn't even looked the batsman that averaged over 30 as opener for us a while ago, despite that hundred vs the West Indies, hence my nervousness about him vs the moving ball in this situation.

OMG Williamson. India....

 

[Flem274*]

haha and a stuff up fielding the straight drive to boot

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Those people whistling are so annoying.

Pretty good fun if you're at the ground though

 

[Blocky]

Williamson's same old flaw though, hard hands and playing inside out, outside his off stump - so many dismissals early due to that.

 

[Jono]

We won't be competitive in England with this slip cordon. Pathetic.

 

[Maximas]

Ashwin to return as a specialist slip fielder

 

[jonbrooks]

India dropping too many catches.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Oh god. Ishants sideburns.

 

[Athlai]

Baz living a charmed life.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

You would think that jadeja would have learnt how to slip

 

[straw man]

Well this is 'rollicking' stuff. Boundaries from four-balls and boundaries from edges too. I like the way McCullum is playing and hopefully the pitch will continue to flatten, which is also much better for Anderson coming in next.

 

[Zinzan]

Excellent counter-attack here even if they are living a charmed life. 115/3 is above par for me having being inserted on this wicket.

Is it just my eyes or does the wicket look quite different some 3+ hours uncovered? Looks much browner already.

 

[Zinzan]

272/5 at stumps, which would make it about even-stevens

 

[Flem274*]

i told you guys, its a road in green party clothing

Troll pitch, bro.
McCullum was trolling too when he said he would love to bowl first. I mean, how could he choose to bowl first when that would mean he had to win a toss?

The only problem was NZ losing their sacrificial openers a little too soon.
