I thought Latham's innings cost us. 15 years ago that would have been a great knock, with the advent of T20 you can just see the scoreboard pressure getting to his partners. We needed to be at 220-230 when the second ball arrived to have a good shot at a lead of 50-100.
Hard disagree on Latham

and Ashwin is a dick

Latham is tough but maybe too tough for his own good. Can be an actual limpet, just refuses to rotate the strike at times.

I wouldn't say he's a problem but he could definitely improve that part of his game

Ajaz giving away too many freebees. Can Saha bat? Considering he didnt wicketkeep in NZ's innings.

Given Southee and Jamieson have done the damage I’d like one to be bowling

Wagner should be playing ahead of Somerville…

Weird that runners are not allied, subs can’t bowl or bat… yet a specialist keeper can now sub, and Saha is allowed to bat ( I think) in his normal spot and likely not field again… is what it is, but about as consistent as our COVID rules…

Some b.s. rules in cricket Saha is allowed to bat after basically resting for two days, no doubt he wont keep in NZ's second innings.
Yet we wouldn't have been able to replace Southee with his injury.

I'm only half watching....did the umpire just give Shreyas out, then change his mind, then give him out again, then refer it upstairs??

Good game of cricket. India are just running away with it here.

Their lower order batting is very annoying. Particularly Ashwin.

Declaration a little surprising. It was gonna happen but I thought they'd get to 300 at least.

Hahahaha what?

Wasn't it India who were allowed to review 47 seconds late last tour out here??

And now the hometown umps have told Young to GTFO for a review exactly as it the clock wound down.

And it was clearly missing. Disgraceful.

No surprise that the Indian umpires on the international circuit disappeared around the time that neutral umpires were made compulsory.

Lol why aren't they reviewing everything that isn't backleg dead plumb after the first innings? Not the sharpest knives in the rack.
