Besides, if India want to go home, who can stop them? Or blame them?
Do they split the test championship points in that case? In which case they all but guarantee themselves a place in the final?
No, both teams would get 0 points. However, making the WTC final is about the percentage of points gained from those competed for so it doesn't matter.

Providing the Christchurch weather cooperates India would need to win the third test wouldn't they? A draw or a loss would still see NZ & Australia be #1, #2.
No India have 6 games left (4 against England), 30 points a win, 10 points a draw. They need 120 points to have a greater % than NZ do if they beat Pakistan. This completely changes if any of the games get cancelled.

@rotated don't India have to win at least 3 matches from their series with Oz and England (at home) to get #2? While we have to get max points from our WI and Pakistan series to take second spot if India don't make it?
There is literally zero chance that the final won’t be 2 of the big 3. Oz, India, England. Zero.
NZ has quite a good chance of making but it will all depend on other results.

Is Pucovski the geeza that keeps getting knocked out?

@Hooroo irrelevant now
Yeah but the theatre remains while the young kid is at the crease!
Agreed. No short stuff yet but expect that to be the case until the shine comes off

Just the one bouncer (4th or 5th ball he faced) which he tried to paddle round but went over his head.

Fuck Warner looks sore
At least he can now get some ice on it...
Terrible shot

Not a lot coming off the middle of the bat though. He'll either get his eye in, or an edge will go to a fielder.
