India tour of New Zealand - March 2009

[SaiSrini]

Hmmm... Will try to watch the full game tonight (inspite of losing an over to the DST). Hope to see Sachin click and Sehwag carry on his usual onslaught. If we win today, it will be mighty hard for NZ to stop us from winning the series. If NZ win, India would hand over all the momentum to them which would be good for NZ to level/win the series.

So its a crucial match tonight.

YYuvraj finding some form here.

Jacob Oram is an incredibly good looking fellow

Sachin continues on his good form, Yuvraj is blasting it!!!! Not good, NZ, not good black caps! You have to curb Yuvraj somehow. When the prince starts getting it in the groove, you guys are done!

Indian fans are having fun.... They have chosen the Powerplay at the right moment when Yuvraj has already blossomed. Now Sachin is also trying to bat in T20 mode. Its a DELIGHT!!!!

Edit: Sachin close to a hundred here! On 96*.... Would be a great one if he gets his century here. It has been yet another very good ODI innings from him.

Whats up with the indian fans? not interested in the game? dont see discussions here...

All glued to the tv . Amazing stuff really, 257/3 after 37 overs. Brill knock by Sachin, and Yuvraj. Dhoni's looking good too.

 

[sohum]

Gee whiz. Ridiculous batting from India.

 

[SaiSrini]

WHAT IS SACHIN DOING HERE??? CANT BELIEVE THIS..... Sachin is turning violent for his recent standards.... AMAZING STUFF REALLY!!!

Will Sachin get his double hundred and break Anwar's record? Do it Sachin!!!! I am still hurting from that innings by Anwar. Beat that!!!! PLEASE!!!

155 so far for Tendulkar; 400+ is looking a possibility. Hell, the way things are going, Dhoni could score a ton.

 

[naresh091]

Oh Sachin is leaving the field.Thought he would go on for a double century.**** man.

 

[ajdude]

He'll come back in the second last over and hit eleven sixes and a single, the single being off the last ball of the 49th. Mark my words. :S

 

[SaiSrini]

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!!!! Why did Sachin go in??? DAMN DAMN!! A double hundred was there for the taking..... I am so gutted, but Sachin didnt want to risk missing the next few games. Probably good thinking...

But I will miss that 200 if it doesnt come.... And India are thrashing NZ even more badly here. Raina hits two in a row!

 

[naresh091]

Dhoni on 63 and India on 363.Will any of them get to the next milestone?

 

[angryangy]

It's an incredible score, but on such a small ground a competitive chase from NZ is definitely possible.

 

[age of the fall]

Oh my God. I totally forgot about this until just now.

Southee 10-0-105-0

Wow

 

[naresh091]

Dhoni on 63 and India on 363.Will any of them get to the next milestone?

None of them came up lol.
Anyway Great performance from our batsmen.Especially Sachin,hasnt lost any of his talent even at 35.
Lets hope we win this comfortably.

 

[SaiSrini]

I think NZ will give us a good fight.... Coz the ground is so small that Sachin got into his "90's mould" and was trying to hit sixes almost every ball. Whenever they hit it in the air, I was so confident that it would clear and most of the time, it did.....

But still, its a mighty huge total and our bowling is quite discplined and so, I back India to win this 62-38.
