Int cricket needs DRS for the weaker teams..i feel for NZ, almost every decision that could have gone 50/50 have gone against them, We suffer the same fate most of the time and this affects weaker teams more then the strong ones

NZ's 50 runs short. Even 300ish would've been too easy for this batting line up at home. I hope Kiwi defense show bring fire.

India's chasing this down with extreme ease. This test will end today with an Indian victory.

I don't think Pujara would last long. Expecting Gambhir and Kohli to deliver victory for India.

11 dot balls...I read that Gambhir wicket coming like a open book!
Chokedulkar in...or will Kohli get a deserved promotion to shield the Legend?

Now Gambhir falls. Can't say didn't see it coming after he became tentative and slowed down. Pujara will fall soon.

NZL would've had a great chance had they batted responsibly enough to push this into day 5 and the subsequently degraded pitch.

He'll do well today because India's not really under much pressure.

That was very close call. Huge gap between bat and pad there. SRT's not looking good so far.

time for gambhir to take a break from test cricket, needs to get some confidence back.

Boult has begun to hit the high 130s with good swing. Great maiden over there.

Pujara looks weak against decent pace. Granted the Bengaluru wicket is quickish, but it still ain't anything like what we see in Australia, England or South Africa. I don't see him succeeding outside India.

well let's give him a chance, rahane waiting in the wings for anyone that fails, rohit also and tiwary. it's a problem for gambhir and sehwag to.

Rahane should get a chance. I don't have a lot of faith in Nohit Sharma or Manoj Tiwary. I don't think they can do much outside the subcontinent.

yeah rohit i've lost faith in, he's had quite a few chances and hasn't blossomed. haven't seen enough of tiwary, just seen him a couple of times. but his chances a few and far between and tbh the very first time i saw him wasn't that impressed but he's since scored a century and half century in ODIs, i know they came in the subcontinent but they brought back a little faith (mainly because he's chances are sporadic so scoring a ton in one-days and being in the team off and on is impressive to me, he took his chance).

With Pujara and SRT looking shaky, NZL must be fancying their chances. That being said, these timely breaks usually favor SRT. I think he'll come out swinging to execute a carefully thought-out script packed with premeditated shots.
Great session ahead.

This is seriously the most disgusting perfomance from umpires in a series ive ever seen!! Patel given caught behind when he was nowhere near the ball, he was going well and could have gotten us more precious runs but no, indian paid umpires ofcourse saw an non existant edge. And to make it worse Steve trigger happy ( for kiwis) Davis doesent give tendulkar out when it was hitting off stump, and ofcourse the commentators brush it of as a close call and don't mention or show any more replays, whereas when mcculum wasnt given lbw yesterday, the indian commies went on about it for the next 2 hours, every time a new indian commie came on, first thing he did was show the replay and say it was plumb, but for the mighty tendulkar, no further replays and mentions... Atleast give us a level playing field UMPIRES!

yeah both teams in with a chance here, if NZ can knock over pujara and tendu quickly after lunch then india will be on the back foot (though still favourites with kohli and dhoni still to come).
