Don't Criticise Bhumi Pujan Shikhar Dhawan & Rohit Sharma. Never Easy To Maintain Such Consistency For So Long

Mitchell Santner turned Johnty Rhodes today after taking two catches, Showed great common sense to take the third catch...

That was a bad decision by Kohli!

Stupid decision by Ind team mgmt to hold back Pandya n MSD for newcomer Iyer n Pandey playing his first match in series. #IndvNz #IndvsNz

But we Indians were devastated! 

Reckon NZ would be relieved at losing Williamson.#INDvNZ

A long con I see!

This game is a covert advert for the T10 league.

What an effort by Dhoni! 

Dhoni just saved the Match for India. Series rather. #INDvNZ

He may be Old. He may not be sending the Helicopters as before. But he is MSD behind the Stumps #IndvNZ
