surely keeping wicket with a dislocated finger is just playing through unnecessary pain? I get the special moment, not retire and stuff but couldn't you give Latham the gloves and get a sub fielder on?

(although he might not be able to bat if he does that, not sure on the rules there)

Man if India bat for 20 more overs and leave NZ with 150, it would be sooooo good!
Don't see that being enough, the pitch is a lot flatter today. Bumrah won't swing it, and Shami/Sharma might get a bit of nibble but potentially only considerably while the ball is new. Ashwin a massive threat, no doubt, but I think India will want 180+

Bumrah looked weak in the first innings. Never seen him look less threatening

It's BJ Watling, he's going nowhere. If he couldn't keep to his ability, he wouldn't allow himself to be out there.

Well india may want 300. I’m just saying with 150, it would be evenly poised.

69 overs left. India still in deep **** here. They need at least a 210 lead I think or they will lose

Whatever it takes!!!
You think India are batting this way (Pant, I should say) and no declaration would come? We'd have to agree to disagree on that
They maybe looking to get a certain amount of runs but I dont think they will declare. It means nothing anyways given our 9-11 only need 3 balls to be cleaned up.
