New Zealand in India: 3 x T20 and 2 Tests - Nov/Dec 2021

Hmmm. Henry plays spin about as well as Colin…. But due one of his magical miracle innings where he has three careers worth of luck rolled into a few hours…

pretty proud of how we’ve done here tbh

 

[Hutty1986]

About 30 overs to go. They're not getting 5 an over on this track. Would be a superb effort to hold on for a draw here.
Edit-well f**k me. Probably toasted now.

Nicholls is such a myth….

And this keeper shit is still annoying me, stupid law change which could disadvantage touring teams substantially

They go so hardout celebrating wickets that are just from the junk pitch. A bit of variable bounce is fine but you shouldn't have balls running along the deck. Time for Ravindra to show his worth here.

 

[Bazal]

Haha holy shit how does any umpire above grade cricket give that out?

The standard of on field umpiring has been a real blast from the past

The audacity of hope. That was a gem. Keep em coming we'll take any minute we can waste.

 

[Hutty1986]

Better try and get the trainer out there boys! Bit of fake cramp, shit your strides, something!

 

[edabomb]

Ravindra needs to take as much strike as possible, he has looked solid other than the odd ground grubber.

 

[Hutty1986]

It could be pitch black and they'd let these grubs keep bowling

The reason for not offering them the light there?
It’s India.

If the roles are reversed, it'd be stumps about 45 minutes ago.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

They've literally explained numerous times that they take a reading on day 1 for the light and if it drops below that reading then the umps call it.

I'm all for a good old fashioned India bitch-sesh but like it's the rule?

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Pretty clear we're watching the 2 best test sides. The championship was pretty accurate

 

[Hutty1986]

Cricinfo says another 8 minutes. I was hoping this was the potential last over!

 

[Hutty1986]

Cracking effort kiwis. Plenty of ticker. We'd have been rolled by tea on the last day.

 

[mozza91]

That was some fine Test cricket. The fact that everyone on cricinfo wil be devastated is an added bonus.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Good on the kiwis outside of when they play the aussies they always seem to find a way to scratch and claw their way to a result

 

[_snafu_]

They should go to a super over.

 

[Rod]

Great effort to hang on for the draw, ironically it was the 3 spinners who did nothing with the ball that get us home with the bat. All things considered a draw is a great result in India, especially when you have Hometown Harry umpires putting their fingers up almost before the ball has finished hitting the pad.

Chance to jag a series win in Mumbai now, where the conditions may suit our guys a little better.
