    You can't ship a double century to an Indian batsman in India and expect to win an ODI.

    Sheesh an over to forget for Finn.

    Needed him to stick around with a massive total to chase.

    No chance of us winning really, but Bracewell is playing a beautiful innings here.

    Hard to underestimate my anger of learning the game is live on youtube after reading it was on ESPN only early this morning. Would have been great to watch the 200 innings.

    Bracewell 103 off 57. Got there with a 6.

    His IPL price just sky rocketed.

    India woken up again.

    Santner goes for 57, I think. Trying to slog over. 59 off 26 needed and India have relearned how to bowl balls which can't be put away.

    Oh well, it was fun whilst it lasted.

    Ferguson goes .... 22 off now 9 with only 1 wicket in hand. Most importantly ... did the batsman cross?

    Only way to win is Bracewell gets them all.

    20 off the last over needed. Poor last over for us, only 4 runs.

    All over. Bracewell out lbw (plum).

    Fantastic chase, wasn't to be, but brilliant watching.

    Indian cricketers take a lot of shit for being dickheads, but to a man, they shook Bracewells hand at the end full of smiles and respect for what he almost did.

    They changed the rules recently so it doesn't if they crossed anymore.

    That's a scorecard that really makes you wish you'd watched the game - but 9pm - 6am is not a fantastic time for a Kiwi audience.

    219 required in under 22 overs with 4 wickets in hand when Satnav walks out to join Bracewell - taking it to the last over is an epic achievement.

    The players are fine, it’s the fans that are the dickheads

    Most of the Cricket lovers in India are great,I have done 4 stints coaching in India at Academies and the Fans are fanatical but they really do treat you like Gods.
    Even the people I had cleaning my Room at the Hotel where awesome I would come back to Find my towels made into a animal of some kind Always puts a smile on my face.
    But it is a Terrible classed society the average worker gets treated like shit by the Rich no matter how hard they work.
    Going from one end on the city to the other from Ferraris,Lambos and women dripping in diamonds to People living on the medium strips on card board.
    Great country some only have cricket and nothing else,
    Dickheads every where I guess but the average Indian in India at least I find great, the ones living in Australia not so much.

    Yeah very much a sweeping generalisation. I’m sure heaps of them are absolutely awesome.

    It’s the ones that blindly wank on about Kapil Dev being so hard done by cos he had to bowl in Indian conditions and ignore the fact his record is actually better at home than abroad that irk me.
