*Official* New Zealand vs India Tests & ODIs

[V Reddy]

Another two players going to be added to the squad after test series.

Just saw in the news , ganguly with press and he was being asked a lot of questions about as the pitch has more pace and movement whether the match will end in two days . He replied after answering some , while laughing that the match is going to end in 2 days and said that there were other issues as well. Seems a lot of questions are being asked about the batting .

 

[V Reddy]

Also heard that most probably the first 2 days will be washed out

 

[Gotchya]

So the match will last more then two guaranteed ! hehe just kiddin.

Thats sad becuase I really want to see the Indian batting do something. They had promised themselves some things, now they better start doing it.

Day 1: Start delayed due to previous rain

No play before Lunch possibly Tea

However the sun is out at present so looking hopeful.....

 

[Bazza]

I'm doing a sundance - there's no way I'm gonna let rain save India's backsides!! :P

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Talk about lights out!

India 92/8!!!!!!!
(VVS Laxman 23 Harbhajan 20)
Bond 3/33 Tuffey 4/12

Well that is quite a shocking scoreline. I thought it would be bad but not that bad!

ROFLMAO!

Well bowled or badly batted?

But no AA to save them!

Some things will just never happen...:rolleyes:

 

[Gotchya]

Nice. Very Nice Indeed. WE might have a chance of a result then

 

[Rik]

2 Wins for England and India collapsing in the 2nd Test after they were thrashed by New Zealand in the 1st...sorta makes up for all that England bashing really

 

[Gotchya]

It Doesn't ! ur talking about India

 

[V Reddy]

The Indian Batsman deserve to get bashed now. They should have got atleast 150 as it would have been a fighting total. !
Seeing this i can't see them reaching 150 in the 2nd innings as well . Now the bowlers should restrict NZ to below to 200. If the fast bowlers can't do it here then they won't anywhere. I am really looking forward to see how the batsman play in the 1 dayers as the pitches will be the same.

Very sad state of affairs indeed!! India will lose 0-2, will in all probability lose the one day series. All the hype and hoopla looks like it has been for nothing. NZ are tough customers at home, always have been, but that doesn't excuse this kind of performance(or non-performance)! . I just hope they regroup before the WC so that they can give a good account of themselves atleast there.

No doubt the Indians wish it was!

Well...you saw the Indian batting doing something...

 

[aussie_beater]

Well, well.....the "mighty" Indian batting lineup is showing just how mighty they are :rolleyes: ...and this is the third consecutive innings it has folded like this, and I am sure there will be a fourth time as well, quite soon :!( :!(

 

[Neil Pickup]

Now, where are the "Terrace Element"?

Zaheer has bowled well again, taking the two NZ wickets to fall so far (47/2 - Vincent [c Dravid] and Richardson [LBW]), but Nehra and Yohannan are doing Agarkar impressions...

47 for 3 now, McMillan falling to Nehra, but I still reckon NZ will win this with a fair amount of ease.

 

[Anil]

48 for 4 now... Astle gone for a duck, Nehra taking his 2nd. Glad to see that the Indians are putting up a fight atleast.

 

[Anil]

NZ inching forward to 59 for 4, Fleming and Styris showing some of the patience which was lacking in the Indians. Still very much NZ's game.
