Indian Cricket Tour of NZ 2020

Jamieson misses out on 50, but otherwise a great hand.

India leads by 7 runs and it's become a one innings shoot-out.

Jameson has taken to test cricket like a duck to water.

At the three-quarter mark in the series, he's topping the batting averages @46.5 and fractionally behind Jadeja and Timmy in the bowling averages @14.33 - with 9 wickets.

Right now, he's the man-of-the-series - though that could be taken away by several others.

[No Quarter]

Jamieson has done an amazing job of hauling us back into the game. India still ahead of the game given they get to set us a tricky target to chase, but we've given ourselves a chance.

We've knocked them over cheaply three times in a row. Hopefully there's some mental hurdles for their batsmen to overcome now.

[Bovidae]

The weather forecast for Wed isn't flash but I doubt the test will last that long.

[Chris B.]

Poor old Timmy - averaging just five less than the world's best batsman - and everyone's out for his blood!

[Cyclops]

Jamieson could replace de Grandhomme on his performances to date.

[Damo]

Vicious delivery from Boult. No shame in getting out to that. Vintage Boult. Hope it carries on swinging like that.

EDIT
On replay it appears that moved off the pitch not in the air.

[No Quarter]

2 down 8 to go - comon lads!!!!

[Godder]

CdG gets Kohli! 51/3.

[Duluth]

38 runs for Kohli in the series

I love wags. Good to see being a new dad hasn't softened him, he is a font of bottomless rage 🤬

in his hands, out of his hands. He's normally good at that

Almost too easy for him. That might be costly

[Cyclops]

Into the hands and then out again. That's schoolboy stuff. Brutal for wags. Indian batsmen are generally getting the rub of the green when it comes to edges going into gaps and missing fielders.

Not the first he's dropped in recent times!!!

Some of our catching has been a bit ordinary in this test. At least three regulation catches put down - and it could end up costing us big.

This match is critical for the World Test Championship. I reckon the winner is odds-on to play Australia in the final.

Australia? No way, india are way out in front, can't see them being caught the way they play at home. This is an aberration of a series for them I think

[canefan]

Kylo is causing problems. We need to get these guys out for a modest score because I'm concerned about our ability to chase a big total down on this pitch

[Chris B.]

@nzzp India has to play Australia in Oz.

If they lose the series to us, I reckon they're odds on to lose that series as well - which would be two series losses out of six.

[nzzp]

@Chris-B fair enough. It'll be a cracking series over there, hoepfully the Indian batting gets goign (and they get some warm up games!)
