India vs. NZ, 3rd test.

[Timbo]

Oh good, another bloody highway.

Enzed have won the toss and will bat.

 

[Fast Eddie]

We're not making it look like one.

lol, not according to the Kiwi batsmen

It's a special gift we have

Lots of negativity around McCullum's (?) decision to play... all around pretty stupid - if Simon Katich couldn't open the batting on the 1st morning would he play anyway in the hope that he'll be ok in a day or so?

Overall inept... but 2 good tests in a row, which is still a great result for us

Ryder is becoming one of the better Test batsmen in the world though which is good.

except when he's not drunk, he's carrying an injury

Dravid and Dhoni have put huge pressure on us now... be a wonderful effort to save it from here... we'll see, either way the test performances have restored a small amount of my faith...

Certainly McCullum (in new role), Ryder, Williamson and McKay have shown they're promising, Martin still useful... McIntosh is gritty, and Taylor/Vetorri haven't done much hopefully we can build on it...

 

[Red Bear]

Well a bit of a collapse there from the Kiwi's to lose that one. At least some positivity after the disasterous Bangladesh tour

 

[Fast Eddie]

Few of them got shafted in the second innings but not a great effort in that last test, all went wrong in the first innings.

Awful decision on Taylor...

Guptill's was pretty bad too, although not the worst - Taufel isn't in great form at the moment

the worry is that we still can't bat...
