Jebus - 51 off the last three overs from SA.

Our death bowling needs some Southee.

Yes 51 off last 3 shows NZ continue to struggle at the death. Franklin, Bracewell and Milne won't be our usual death bowlers though.

Why the Indian think tank didnt promote Yuvraj for the warm up game? I mean Kohli is in prime form and he could have been rested for the game or at least Yuvi could have batted @ 3...

Agree. Yuvi needs as much practice he can get

Only a warm-up, tbf. Kohli or Sharma could retire out at any point.

Jeez, Sami beams Kohli and scones him. Lucky he has a lid on. Nasty.

Rob Key on Kohli:

"Argubaly the best batsman in the world at the moment"

Hamish aside, I'm not actually disagreeing as violently as I thought I would.

He's not. He may be one of the best limited overs batsmen (easy to mount a case for him), but not overall batsman, not by any stretch of the imagination.

Hamish Marshall is very good, so can't argue with you there.

Exactly. Test cricket is the most important part of being an overall batsman and he's not done it there yet. I'd rather have a top Test batsman who's an average limited overs bat.
