Next match is at the notoriously massive Eden Park now. Really some hilarious commentary from Doull and Smith in those first couple matches. But very much in keeping with their typical attitudes.

This is not Bengaluru? Ah well...

The great spin basher walks in after the platform of dreams at 180/2 in 10 overs and gets 5 off 10 balls and is dismissed by a spinner bowling a full toss. Time to call it.

Still don't think the Iyer stuff is tenable and this is part of why parachuting him as captain right away before he had a chance to be a part of the team and score was a mistake. He'll play a good innings here and there but don't think he's anywhere near the best XI.

Looks like 170+ will be a tough chase today. #NZvInd

Without knowing all the specifics, it seems like it would be irresponsible of them to play him? This isn't a pure pain tolerance thing, there are clearly functional issues based on how he was struggling and even him being dropped down the order.

The sight of a frustrated Steve Smith abruptly leaving his match-eve fitness test has deepened Australia's top-order selection concerns for the #SAvAUS series decider in Cape Town: cricketa.us/47Jalst

What is this nonsense baseball vs cricket discourse? Even among Americans with contempt for the sport it's widely acknowledged as arguably the hardest task in sports and cricket fans are saying it's nothing more than a full toss lol

Not the first time Jurel has gone trying to pull one from well outside off like that. Far more difficult to control properly.

Wow Rauf, what a way to finish it lol. All-time chase. Absolutely spectacular innings from Shadab.

Wasn't that clearly a wide? Think it was sailing over his head even if he wasn't ducking

Another strike against the "batters always know when they've hit it." That was unreal lol, Shadab had completely given up.

True across formats as well. The Lords heartbreak into the Manchester draw and thrilling Oval win last year could well have been for this gen of fans what several memorable matches of the past were for many of us. In some sense, that's the beauty of sports in general.

We stop feeling the emotions and euphoria because we are used to watching it and have out-grown emotionally. The next generation of fans will have such games to make them immune to it. We are becoming what we don’t like, saying everything was best only when we saw it first!

This is why their overall strategy with him is rather nonsensical. If he's not going to get T20s to play, at least release him to play other cricket in the meantime, whether that's Ranji or A matches.
Manya@CSKian716Oct 24
Cool. Now they've gotten more reasons to not select him after picking him for one game out of the blue and batting him out of position. In addition to "other people won the WC for you", we'll have "he is not ready".

Not that I expected anything other than 0-2 in the NZ tour anyway, but...

The funniest piece of commentary in those waning moments was Bhogle with 13 needed off 4. "Don't bowl a no-ball they're telling Nawaz, don't bowl a wide, look where the WK is, right back, they don't want any byes" Next 3 balls: no-ball, wide, byes.

The Shaheen over gets somewhat lost in the Rauf 6s and the theater of the final over. Especially those 2 boundaries off the shorter lengths. Think there was a CricViz stat that everyone else in the game scored 57(57) off those lengths and he got 30(14).

People really need to move past worrying about what obviously partisan actors whine about. Whether they work for Wisden or not lol.

Crazy chase from SL. Thought it would be one of those matches where they cruise along without losing many wickets but always well behind the rate but wild hitting in the last 10.

Incredible turnaround from 110-6 early on day 3. Hopefully a great decider at Cape Town set up now.

Missed the match but I see the highly intelligent management has once again pushed Tilak to 3. Apparently him struggling vs spin repeatedly to the point where he had to be dropped down the order in the middle of the WT20 wasn't clear enough.
