    A lot of negative nellies on here at the moment.

    We've gone from 10/1 off 7 to 38/1 of 12. Last 5 overs at nearly 6 an over.

    Ball after ball at the top of Kane's off stump for dots and he's doing nothing to try and break it up. As loath as I am to criticise the great man, he needs to do a little more.

    All I can say is Guptill better be a hangry tiger in the field. A VERY hangry tiger.

    Why?

    He's 20 off 32 balls. If he's still there in 30 overs I have no doubt that he'll be scoring at well over run a ball.

    Because 250 is not going to be enough.

    Vettori reckoned we needed to dominate the first ten overs. Well we haven't done that but i guess at least one of the openers are still in.

    We haven't had the cattle to dominate the first 10 overs in a long time, Vettori is living in the past. Our best bet is to conserve wickets and finish strong.

    We are now down to $3.25 at the TAB which means we are ahead of where we started.

    An in form Guptill can do that. But agree that without him firing build and launch is the better strategy.

    9 from that over without taking a risk.

    We should aim to be around the 200 mark at the 40th and then throw caution to the wind.

    300 won't be enough vs a side that's used to playing on slow pitches that deteriorate

    This is a matter of NZ batting 50 overs & hoping for a miracle 🙏 🙏

    Reality is how many many wickets India lose in their inevitable victory

    Drinks break at 14 overs? Thought it's supposed to be 16?

    Yeah, we're all well aware of how good India is. They did come first after all.

    But, runs on the board and an early wicket or two... pressure does funny things to people...

    Boult needs a magical spell

    He is a deadly bowler
