India tour of New Zealand - Jan to Feb 2014

[asprin]

Not looking too good at the moment. And we cant' really expect Kohli to score in every game. The numbers will catch up to him sooner than later.

 

[scratch978]

Oh no Dhawan OUT.. He was just looking in fine form.
Anyway, great expectations from Rohit today. He has already hammered 3 beautiful sixes.

And Rohit Sharma again throws it away

Good guy, so predictable.

 

[Ohm]

Ah! Both openers departed with nothing special done. Both were looking in good form but it was just a peril to everyone.

 

[Biggs]

Corey Anderson > Sachin Tendulkar.

Enjoy.

 

[Ohm]

Corey Anderson > Sachin Tendulkar.

Enjoy.

AH?

 

[surendar]

Some good start finally, definitely adds value to 300+ chase. If Raina can get some form in this match,that would be even more fabulous.

 

[Ohm]

Getting ready for a hat trick there...... (?)

 

[Biggs]

Someone needs to remind Kohli that when you nick it, you're out. No matter what faces you wanna pull

 

[grkrama]

its again down to kohli and dhoni,hope rahanae clicks today that will help a bit...

 

[playkid12]

Nah, Kohli was just disappointed at himself. He wasn't claiming that he didn't knick it. Being the only Indian batsman that has performed this series, I'm pretty sure he knew right there that the game was over.

Rahane, on the other hand, was basically saying that it didn't touch the bat with his little gesture before the finger was raised, which isn't great to see.

ts again down to kohli and dhoni,hope rahanae clicks today that will help a bit...

Rahane gone for nothing special. It's again on Dhoni's shoulders.
Heavy pressure on Dhoni.. Oh my God, if I were Dhoni, I would have collapsed !!

 

[grkrama]

he cant win it single handedly ,if kholi was there it would have given hope

 

[scratch978]

Nobody can't win it single handedly. But Dhoni has turned these pressures into victories in the past. But what we need here is a solid patnership.

ya but lesser totals say if it was 270 odd,this is 50 runs beyond him,raina has to contribute heavily..atleast a 60 and a MS special from here to win...very doubtful lets see
