Let us all hope that Gambhir with Sachin, VVS and Karthik perform well tomorrow also and save this test. This is a different type of Test India will succeed.
Yes there is dfference, when is available especially as captain.A person radiating confidence. But today he is not available. Do not blame Sehwag. This is Sehwag, he willplay like this. But it is great to see how Gambhir in the company of Dravid and Sachin is playing. Really gritty batting. We wish, it is continued for a day more. As VVS said, the team is trying to do something special.But NZ coach says they will win. But let us wish Sachin and Gambhir one more good day, followed by VVS, Yuvaraj and Karthik to excel.Good day in the offing.

i dont know why everyones feeling that india did well.according to me,india dint do well and is still not out of danger.even if india manage to get lead of 150 runs,kiwis can knock off those runs in 30 overs and come over triumphs.

Boss, the difference is we have just lost 2 wickets. Had we lost 4 or 5 wickets, things might have been different. We should be able to draw this test, but wd be good lesson to our complacent players not to take things for granted!

neither of the matches mentioned above when Aus won SA could salvaged anything by scoring faster.
