Posted: Fri Feb 28, 2020 11:57 pmDelayed start due to rain, damp conditions on a green pitch away from home and India lose the toss and get put in to bat first ... feels like we've been here before

Based on conditions and the wicket I think NZ were pretty confident they wouldn't need a spinner!

Shaw goes failing to push on from a rapid fifty.

Chances are you'll need a sole spinner more than a fifth seamer.
But if they had picked four, Jamieson wouldn't have played, and he took a 5-fer.

It is already hard enough for touring teams.

Kohli takes a great catch and NZ are five down before lunch.

Gutsy late batting from Jamieson (an excellent find for NZ !) hauled them to just seven runs down on first innings...and the five man pace battery has reduced India to 90/6 at the close. Don't think they'll need that spinner
Might still need cool batting though if the Indian tail can wag a bit...the odd ball keeping a bit low . Still India need a big effort from Vihari , Pant and Jadeja. Won't be easy : Boult is really on fire ...

Posted: Sun Mar 01, 2020 11:02 amConsidering how NZ have chocked a lot recently, chasing 100 might be to much for them.
