Indian Cricket Tour of NZ 2020

Big wicket!
I was thinking we'd want a minimum of three - and preferably four+ - wickets by the time India get past our lead. Now we're still 105 runs ahead and Agarwal and Kohli at the crease.
We just need a couple of Indian errors in the next session and we'll have our foot on the throat.

Timmy picks up Agarwal caught down the legside. Fielder is plonked right in front of hotspot, so that's no help - but, RTS and the batsman's reaction both suggest a little nick.
Tim fires enough stuff down legside, that I've got to think he's legitimately bowling for the strangle.

Boult is really bowling well this second innings. Which means the selectors will have an actual quandary for the next test.
Not overly impressed to see we've already used up all our reviews though...
Do we still get them both back at 80 overs.
Only 15 left...
The review on the arm guard was so close though. Equivalent of "umpires call" to my mind, but not applicable in this case.

Doull was suggesting they should just quietly say to Jamieson, "Well done, you're in the frame and will definitely be on our next tour...".
I'd be pretty inclined to say that to Ajaz - unless he picks up four or five wickets tomorrow.

In many ways Pant is the most worrying guy from here.
The last three Indian batsmen probably won't really hurt us themselves, but they might stick around with someone scoring quickly - and that seems most likely to be Pant.
Rahane and Vihari (and Ashwin) might grind India to safety - but, Pant could still take the game away from us quite quickly.
And, of course, on Day 5, Ashwin may come into play.

Been a really good test so far, and credit to the guys they've bounced back well after what happened in Aus.
The first session tomorrow will likely dictate the result of the game. Hoping it's nice and overcast...
Boult's cameo at the end there was so important, the Indians must have been furious watching that after hauling themselves back into the game.
Bring on tomorrow. India would be a great scalp to collect this summer.
How many teams have actually won test series away from home recently? Ignoring the minnows in test cricket.
