How Suresh Raina continues to get a game baffles me. Absolutely horrible test batsman, and Rohit Sharma cant get a gig over him?
Sharma has been in shoddy form, though. Rahane should be a mile ahead of him IMO.

Great to see Pujara take his chance. For all the talk about the flashier options he was always going to be the next cab off the rank to take one of the open spots.

I think Franklin is one of the better NZ bats nowadays. Sad reflection on their cricketers, but he deserves a place.
Its crazy how the likes of Frnaklin and Vettori are some of the best bats in New Zealand!!!

They should send their up and comer batsmen over to Australia to learn their craft, ala Ian Bell for England.

As documented last summer: The Australian batting lineup would profiteer with this useless Indian bowling attack

Gimme Ashwin and Ojha any day of the week


India was too chicken to bring the hopeless Ojha over because of fear for him being found out. and Even I could smash Ashwin for six

NZ doing quite well here. India 4 down with just over 100 on the board with the top 4 gone courtesy of Bracewell and Southee.

need franklin to kick on here, 39 no with bracewell, 205/6, hoping southee has one of those tests where everything comes off and he pulls a 50 out of his ass, but unlikely with the spinners ripping through them. need a tail wag nz!
