@booboo I really hate the Indian commentators blowing smoke up all their asses

It's not just that Indians. Doull and Macca have been sucked in too.

Michael Holding, in the last 12 months, has made me realise these commentators really want to keep their cushy jobs, and they know their paymasters are always listening 🙂

Should we take the new ball, when 80 overs roll round?

With those foot marks, I kind of wish we'd picked Ajaz. Colin hasn't offered much so far

A quickfire 50 is what Colin owes us.

[Gunner]

Anyone see the win predictor?

Bit of a joke in test match cricket, but anyway it had India at 20% and us at 29%.

[mikey07]

@gunner last time I saw it, was India 29% us 19

[MN5]

Holy shit, to quote Bill Lawry I want to boof Kyle Jamieson !

That's about right. Draw clear favourite.

Wags leaking runs all of a sudden

I’m thinking we will, no sign of Southee yet, and Boult only had a couple.

Keeping them fresh, and hopefully they can be a bit more accurate with it this time round.

They are starting to score all of a sudden. Hit them with the new ball

[sparky]

168-5. New Ball coming. If they can do damage with that it will be advantage New Zealand.

It's Day 3 right? How is anything other than a draw a reality?

Not me!

Colin helped us get a bit of control yesterday, when Timmy had sprayed it round and given the Indians a bit of a flyer.

Runs are going to be at a premium in this game - I reckon we might need every skerrick of batsmanship we have.

This feels right?

With the spare day it's effectively only Day 2. But, play tomorrow doesn't look promising.

[Gunner]

Quality first hour from the BCs.

Im falling asleep so it’s bedtime for me, I hope to see wonderful things when I open up the cricinfo app in the morning.

Didn't realise there was a spare - I'm engaged again!

Nice way to relieve all that pressure Colin. I don't know what u guys see in him. Negative tactics
