*Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

[straw man]

How stupid do you have to be to play that when they made the plan that obvious with a leg slip in.

given where the previous ball went, yeah

 

[chris.hinton]

lol at India

 

[King Kane]

Rahul should be filthy with himself there, getting strangled just before lunch.

O'Rourke doing the damage with some of his worst deliveries but they all count on the scoresheet.

 

[Johan]

India needs to work on their ability to play the moving ball, this won't fly in England

34-5 @SillyCowCorner1

 

[thundaboult]

what a star this lad is

gotta get jamo back on the park too, an attack of both o rourke and him is juicy

 

[Moss]

NOW the Indian batting starts. Can NZ keep them to under 300?

 

[thundaboult]

dinesh karthik: will o ruk

 

[OverratedSanity]

This is hilarious

 

[sayon basak]

Jadeja just giving Ash the chance to score.

 

[honestbharani]

NZ always seem to somehow find these juicy tracks when they tour. TBF, Eng/Aus tour in the spring and these guys always seem to tour in the winter, so granted there is better chance of these conditions in Oct-Nov than Feb-Mar.

NZ will have to play very poorly to not win this game from here. Having an opposition 30/5 in the first session should almost always ensure a win.

EDIT - 6 now. Well deserved for us after the idiotic decision to drop a seamer and bat first in these conditions.

 

[King Kane]

Jadeja throwing his wicket away too, what a session for the Black Caps, you couldn't have asked for much better, although Pant should be out too.

 

[thundaboult]

swear to god if we bottle this match after this kind of start

 

[ashley bach]

Appears to be a good toss to lose

 

[straw man]

I think that session went exactly how all of us imagined it

 

[sayon basak]

Surprising that Rahul hasn't come in yet, he is one of the few Indian batsmen that would bat sensibly and not throw away his wicket with a reckless shot.

...........

 

[OverratedSanity]

Surely NZ can't lose from 34/6 with jadeja gone.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

lol

Surely NZ can't lose from 34/6 with jadeja gone.

Quiet you
