New Zealand tour of India - October/November 2017

That A tour 1 month prior to this has really helped Latham. Have to say he is looking in ominous touch today and key here for NZ in this run chase.
 
Well Taylor is gone now, India need around two more quick wickets at this point. Latham can easily take the game away for India once more if he is not gone in a while. Nicholls and De Grandhomme are handy with the bat considering their batting frim last match. And even BhuvI is having a bad day with the ball. This could indeed be very close. Pandya and Bumrah need to step up and deliver for us now.
 
What a thrilling finish! Both Bumrah and Bhuvi were superb in the last 4 overs especially Bhuvi who held his nerves despite being hit for 70 odd in the 1st 8 overs and Bumrah as usual brilliant in the death. From NZ perspective they came tantalizingly close on a winning a series for the 1st time on India soil.

De Grandhomme batted quite badly. NZ missed a couple of easy full tosses. Could've gone either way, really.
 
Turning point of the game was the run out of Latham. Terrible from De Grandhomme to run him out. NZ played very well in this series. Gave our bowlers a great workout.
 
I was just praying Bumrah shouldn't bowl any no balls :p
Lol me too but fortunately the broadcast camera angle was giving a clear view of his front foot so was quite relaxed once the ball is delivered.
 
This series atleast played well. New Zealand played better then Australia and this series finally gave us some excitement. Back to T20's and then boring Sri Lankans blowing our mind off.
 
Hope Ashish Nehra gets a game tomorrow. Who else?

He has done a service to India in limited overs cricket and must be rewarded by playing in front of his home crowd. I think they should rest Bhuvi for the first match.
 
So Nehra ji is playing in the XI for the one final time wearing that the Indian Jersey also Iyer is making his debut batting at no.4.
