***Official*** New Zealand in India 2012

Williamson's move to number three has worked ok so far. 32 and 39* is a decent effort considering what's happened so far in this test match.

I am not an NZ fan but I like to think of myself as fairminded on most issues, and I have to say that this upsets me. They should not occur anymore. Sydney 2008 was the single worst game I had to sit through. That was the main catalyst for UDRS, when BCCI acted like little kids and complained of everything from bias to unsportsmanlike conduct. ICC introduced the system to help those concerns, and when India got burned by it, the senior players (not even the BCCI) just whined again. It's a slap in the face to all of us who stuck up for them in Sydney.

India needs a couple more Sydneys. One so they would adopt the system, and a few more just as punishment for being so stupid.

You're right SS, but then just about everyone's being saying it for years. It's frustrating just to have to discuss umpiring - we didn't need to when we were getting thrashed by West Indies!

Zaheer bowling brilliantly with nothing to show for.
He's swinging the ball but it's not late swing, plus struggling to get much from the pitch (just like the other seamers). Still think spinners are more likely for wickets.

Ugh. Please don't get out to Raina after doing so well against the full-time bowlers.

Wow, I went to fill my bottle of water during the overs break and Raina had already finished the over when I got back....I thought it was still the same over break....

Just saw the Guptill dismissal for the first time, did that look as bad on replay as it did at normal speed? Pitched well outside off and spinning away?
