Black Caps tour of India

[canefan]

We need to finish them now

[Chris]

Bowling too short and different lines easy runs,

[No Quarter]

Poor over from Sodhi

[Chris]

Too wide Patel drop on the 4 metre length on the 4 th stump line that is were it is spinning and biting.

[canefan]

Great run out!

[Chris]

Thank fuck

[canefan]

Washington was being quite the pest

[No Quarter]

HAhahah hilarious way to finish

[Chris]

That 28 run lead could be worth 2 wkts if the Indian spinners hit the right line and length.

[canefan]

We will need 300+ maybe more

[No Quarter]

What a fantastic effort to restrict them to 263. It's all a bit surreal.

[Chris]

We will be struggling to make 200 if they bowl well.
If we make 300 we will win.

[No Quarter]

At the halfway mark the game is even. We're every chance of a collapse on this wicket, but for the 3rd test in a row we are right in it and have every chance of another win.

[Chris]

Washington will be a nightmare for our lefties the way the pitch is spinning with variable bounce.

[Steven Harris]

@Chris , I will take 200-250 as a minimum I’m still irritated by those dropped catches ..we should be going in with a 50-100 lead

[Chris]

It has been a great series for us it is not easy to go to India and perform as well as we have.

He has had the better of a number of our batsmen, including Ravindra

Yep game over if we had rolled them for 100 less. I have seen these dry pitches in India before it will be harder and harder to stay in.
You can’t stay around just defending your going to get one that takes you out.
We need to be super positive and score as regularly to not let their spinners drop on a good line and length.

Yeah he bowls really well to lefties straightens the bowl late and spins it away from the lefties sucks you in to playing the wrong line.

What a brilliant session for Ajaz. He's failed to make a significant impact with his bowling this series, until now. Consistently had the ball in dangerous areas
