A massive asset to this team!

Sir Ravindra Jadeja like all rounder is an asset for the any team. Any team would love to have him.

We can still get the best out of him by playing him at 5 or 6 according to match situation.#NZvIND pic.twitter.com/M7hke3nW9S

Humble guy Saini!

Navdeep Saini in PC: Got to bat after a long time. Was shocked when I hit the boundaries... thought “wow am batting well today” (Smiles a wide toothy grin) #NZvInd

I'm still wondering whether it's within the laws for a coach to act as a substitute fielder? Case in point is at Eden Park in Auckland where fielding coach Luke Ronchi has come on as a substitute fielder. Do the rules permit that? @bhogleharsha @rickeyrecricket

The sickness has been a real pain!
