India won the toss and elected to feild first

Is Tendulkar playing?

NZ 162/3 (37 overs).
Looks like its going to be a high scoring match finally.

NZ 204/5 (43 overs)

Final score would possibly be in 245-260 range.

224/6 in 46 overs

NZ 245/8 (49 overs)

India will be possibly penalized two overs for slow over rate.

** Final Score**
NZ 254/9 [50 overs]

India will probably have to get this in only 48 overs.

This match has been ugly. Indians showing pathetic fielding - jumping and pouncing around but missing the balls. :hehe:

The WK is clueless and must have given away 20 runs by himself.

I would not blame the WK. He did not train to be a WK. He will compensate for his lapses when he bats.

Then why don’t they find a WK? Surely in a country of a billion people there must be a fella who can catch a ball and hit a few? :hehe:

At one point, NZ were 95/1 in 25 overs and it wasn't even look like NZ would make 200 runs.

95/1 in 25 overs, makes hardly 3 runs per over.

India could have stopped NZ at 200 score.

95/1 in 25 overs mean almost 4 runs/over. Do your maths.And with 9 wickets in hand even dumb UMAIR will think that runrate will increase and its gonna be more than 200.

Chanda,

Do your math. Look at extra runs given by India. Don't be judgemental about others.
