NZ tour of India

That reminds me of why I'm álways glad that I dont have to umpire anything higher than kids grade!

[Chris B.]

Great fightback by Ajaz - him and Timmy have both been good.

Kylo and Yoda2 haven't.

[Hooroo]

So so good

[ARHS]

@donsteppa so nothing to do with established club rivalries then 😊

[Donsteppa]

A very sour looking Virat on his way back to the Indian team dugout

Seeing an Indian captain getting a marginal LBW call at home against a spinner makes my head explode a bit. How far has the game come!

I'll leave that for the kids to grow into

I saw a comment that Patel is not a good spinner. I disagree,. Yes he didn't bowl well in the last test, but that deck really doesn't cater to his strengths - he needs a pitch with normal to decent bounce and average to more pace, neither of which were available in the last test. We already saw that he'd made adjustments in his very first over, and now we're seeing he's more confident in bowling his stock delivery because he knows it has a fighting chance on this deck.

Holy shit.

Last time I looked it was the 67 for 0 ...

Well go back to bed then 😉

Just rewound. How the hell did they give Kohli out?

That's bullshit.

I'll take it. But that's bullshit.

Up there with "could have come from anywhere", Nigel Llong level of incomptetence.

But I'll take it.

[Paekakboyz]

@booboo aren't you due for bed?

[booboo]

@act-crusader @Paekakboyz does watching a crappy movie with Mrs Boo rather than the crucket count?

Back to not watching crucket as Mrs Boo wants to watch something else ...

Like it when the crucket is not shut...

Let's see, two left arm spin bowlers who are reasonaably suited to the itch and the controversial option went for almost 5 an over - This deck has enough pace and bounce to suit Wagner perfectly. FML, Stead has the imagination of a Suet pudding.

@booboo I think very slight deflection off pad first, bigger deflection off bat then hits pad. The 3rd umpire looked really hard but all Commentators agreed with decision. Kohli stayed for a while but in the end courageous call. Certainly not home town.

[Chris B.]

Good thing is that in the first innings - Little Kane and Virat have basically nullified one-another!

Amazing thing is that we won the WTC five months ago and now we're playing the runners-up with just five of our winning XI.

Should have 6.

So Somerville’s in the team for his batting, right….

[booboo]

Nice work Satnav, saves 4

[booboo]

I know Somerville is turning it in, but wouldn't you still have a slip?

[booboo]

Damn. 2 x4
