To be fair India are far from full strength themselves (No KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, R Pant, Jadeja, J Bumrah, M Shami).
New Zealand needs to develop the ability toi win away from home in less that perfect conditions, not just remain as home track bullies.

They had some reasonable success in the last cycle. And they were very competitive in the first test. But we need all our best on deck and we ran into a buzzsaw here in Mumbai

I don't know why you are using past tense. This one is still going on.

A lazy 540 batting last in India without our greatest ever bat? Piss in a tin

In good cricketing news the Big Bash is back!

Chris

Much better batting from Young and Mitchell using their feet and being aggressive and positive,
Good batting plan set in place for this innings .

In terms of out of the box, standalone, unlikely to ever go close to repeating anything remotely close efforts, Patel's was like Peter Fulton scoring two tons in one test. Magnificent, but probably one and done.

I just turned the channel to watch BBL and they were showing Ajaz 10 wickets. Can’t escape this match!

India declare with a paltry 539 lead

Seriously though.

We bat out the re remaining overs over two and a half days we piss in 540.

It's ours to lose.

Draw is off the table.

But now with Young not surviving the help of the onfield umpire, we're into the walking wickets part of the top-middle order...

Bloody hell, wasn’t that a test out of the box for 2 metre. Didn’t manage another ton in 22 other tests though…….

Rossco in. Pretty late in his career but definitely a good time to get his first test triple ton.

booboo

So yo uh step away for 2 minutes.

Fuck.

If he gets 3 runs, I’ll be pleasantly surprised…

Taylor goes the wog.

Only way out of this.

Hit out or get out.

Wow some sympathy runs for Ross. No bat and they give him 4

Donsteppa

Ross using his feet is a good thing, the lines he is playing down are another thing...

I think he's having trouble even seeing the ball.

Would be a hell of an effort. Way to retire on a high.

Shocking innings by Ross

That was just painful from Taylor. Time to retire before the selectorial axe has to fall.

Should’ve been 2. He got given 4 runs without even hitting the ball.
