Indian Cricket Tour of NZ 2020

What the hell was that stumping milarky?

[Gunner]

Another catch for Timmy.

We’re still in this if we can keep chipping away at the wickets.

[Chris B.]

@Gunner Actually, I'm thinking we win from here - though not a foregone conclusion.

CJ Gardner Homes had presumably paid for a certain minimum of reviews.

[Cyclops]

2 runs and a wicket from that over. Good Sodhi is world class, bad Sodhi makes test match Santner look good.

[Gunner]

@Chris-B I think 9 an over for the last 6 is pretty easy on Eden Park - if they don’t have to rely on their bowlers to get them...

[Gunner]

India have got this, 32 from 22. Too easy.

[westcoastie]

Good to see Santner got 50 today.

Conceded bowling.

[Gunner]

4,4 off Bennett and its as good as over now.

21 from 16

[Donsteppa]

Can we cancel the rest of the summer and get England back for a few tests at Bay Oval instead?

[westcoastie]

Ian Smith shits me. "India are favourites again" - at precisely no time, have they ever not had this game under control.

He's trying to make it interesting

Yeah - we needed to grab another couple of wickets, because their tail end batting is pretty weak. The door was open, but, Iyer (mainly) was too good.

Missing that runout and dropping that catch were the ballgame really - and something of a continuation of the lives we gave to some of the top Oz batsmen.

We should be called the Cavalo Neros (black cabbages/kale)

[Chris B.]

..at least things are looking promising in Bloemfontein!

On the plus side - the batting was decent. Taking 200 off the world class Indian attack isn't to be sniffed at and all of Guppy, Munro, Rossco and Little Kane did well.

[newsjunkie]

200 on the board, Rohit Sharma fails, No Dhawan, No Hardik Pandya, Virat fails to kick on.

And India get home with an over to spare?

Not looking good. This tour could get ugly fast.

On the plus side, if India wrap up the series early, you guys will get to see Sanju "Rohit Sharma Redux" Samson launch his India career in style.

[Snowy]

We have a few issues recently with our cricket.

Our "attack" is a sort of welcoming committee.
One of our spinners doesn't. The other one can't get it to land on the pitch.
Our "quicks" aren't terribly, well, quick.
More so in Aus than last night but:
Our "bats" didn't.

And then last night there was the fielding...

The team that I have supported for years appears to be back.
