NZL should use Boult from the other side.

Taylor's persisting with Patel. He's doing pretty well with the ball gripping and turning a bit. His length has been perfect but he should try and use available drift.

Pujara looks as though he could be related to our Mosharraf Hossain Rubel, the ordinary SLA Rafiq picked as his protégé.

Kohli looks neither uncomfortable nor in a hurry out there. Gotta love the maturity and the temperament of this 23YO.

Patel finally gets Pujara. Great bowling and a fabulous catch. Pujara too showed a lot of character throughout his innings.

4 down! no matter the result, they have brought faith back for the kiwis! If only the umpiring was upto scratch this could have been even more tighter!

Boult should get Raina with pace (high 130s) and swing as long as it's straight and full.

Good maiden by Boult well seen through by Kohli. This is good cricket. This is why nothing beats test cricket.

4 from kohli means there is less than 100 to get.

Raina departs. What a joke at this level! Just can't handle the pressure of a bowler bowling well to a set field without hokey field restrictions

Patel is delivering an incredible spell of fine spin bowling. Taylor's faith in him is playing off big time!

Well timed from Kohli. Wonderful to see this unfazed 23YO wait for a hittable delivery and then putt it away with authority.

Kohli and Dhoni look composed and determined to finish this.

If Kohli stays not out, his test average will hit 40 for the first time. It can only go up from there. What a player!

Bowling short to either one of these is a bad idea. Neither is out of balance or loses control when he puts it away.

Hopefully our fans will understand that when newcomers like anamul and mominul first get into the national side, it takes time to learn and master your game at the top level. Hope no hating occurs if they don't start of well.

Sad to say this, hating will occur without a doubt. Then the euphoric loving before the their emotions fluctuate with fluctuations in player performances. We have way too many fair-weather fans in Bangladesh who love the team because of national pride and what not, but don't really understand cricket, its history and norms, and any of its nuances.
A genuine cricket culture also takes time to develop

Less than 20 to win now. NZL batters let the team down and substandard umpiring helped too. Their bowlers were in good form. Patel has been a revelation with Southee and Boult doing well.
for Kohli.
