......But then, unfortunately, it rained, and now NZ looks like it is finally going to concede to the 'world's number 1 team." We are sitting pretty on 292-2, and look well set to get a lead of around 300. Hope Sachin gets century no. 50 tomorrow!
Tendulkar and Dravid to fall early today, followed by a quicker than normal clean up of the tail to have the whole team out with only a further 100 runs scored.
Then a solid top order performance, followed by a cavalier and luck-riding century from Taylor, ably supported by Ryder and Williamson, and then a couple of cameos from Vettori and Southee gives NZ a 250 run lead going into the final day.
Sehwag is dismissed by Martin early, and then a combination of tight bowling and athletic fielding means Dravid and Gambhir struggle to build momentum, before an inspired spell by McKay and Southee removes the middle order, and Vettori cleans up the tail. New Zealand winning one of the all time great test matches by around 60 runs.
Have a nice day.
I dunno how you think you could have won that first test..Would have been a 3-0 if not for the first 2 pitches which were roads =/
An attacking team?it is like India without the captaincy of Dhoni.
I dunno how you think you could have won that first test..
Have a nice day.
Yeah because it is so much easier to come back from 50/5 when the pitch is deteriorating.
Have a nice day.
Oh just get the fuck over it, what happened happened.
