Ind-NZ open thread

Right, here's the open thread for the (relatively) big game. I'll join in around mid-way into the first innings. Hopefully Prem and you guys are all in there by then.

Meanwhile, if you're in early, here's Telegraph's usual take on probable team for today. And the funny part, this about Rao's chances "He’s a youngster and, as important, doesn't lack character. For example, he didn'’t mind opening the other day. So, if an opportunity can be given, he won'’t be denied", a well-placed source pointed out from Harare. Hmm I wonder who this 'well placed' source can be :-)

  • If India win the toss they should bat first.... New Zealand need to be put under some pressure while batting

    We saw what happened to them in the last two matches. India just need to survive the opening spell from Bond

  • wonder why SF chose to bat first on a helpful pitch! Does he consider that his self-inflicted ahndicap of Bond's absence means NZ no longer has nayone capable of taking wickets?

  • 1.5 Pathan to Astle, two runs, good length delivery, this one is
    drifting on to middle and leg, Astle gets into a good position and
    turns it away behind square on the leg side, this time third man
    fails to cut off the second run.
    Whats wrong with cricinfo?
    or has SG placed third man on the leg side :-)
