The touch of VVS could make any one like a 24 Carat Gold, leave alone Bhajji. Just a few days back, he has made Ishant to perform and now Bhajji. Simply Great !
When Harbajan came and play first ball of the first inning I realized that any how he get the 100 marks and it is true. At our second inning he shown his talent with truly fighter with the company of Laxman. I think Harbajan and Laxman both the truly fighter and stayed. Now, our Team is No.1 of world, at our second inning India were 15/5 in a deep trouble near to defeat but our play denied for defeat. And drawn the match, excellent.

Mishra inclusion is invariably because he has got the ability to bat and equally his spin may be trouble for Kiwi.

1. SEWAG 2. M VIJAY 3. PUJARA 4. TENDULKAR 5. VERY VERY SPECIAL 6. MS DHONI 7. BAJJI 9. ZAK 10. ISHANT 11. OJHA
It was a fantastic 5th day cricket which I will remember for along time. As perhaps evrybody would have expected a result in favour of Newzeland but Bajji and VVS had other thoughts . Kudos to them. By saving the match and also embarassing of losing to a side who are 7th in ICC rating, great. this showed india is reallly No.uno in test rankings.
It was a Great Innings from VVS as usual, but the biggest surprise Harbhajan Singh, whom V all knew he can bat very well.
Completing & scoring a century at the crucial juncture 4 India is something V need 2 applaud him for his Greatness.
Both of them had saved from the shame.
It is bit surprising for me, when India won the match against the Aussies, why not they can repeat the same with Kiwis & play carefully that too in the Home series?
india's bowling and second inning batting is causing a worry a lot...which went hiding agnst Australia series as well.India is not able to bowl opposition in first innings cheaply,which is disappointing. and moresoever second inning batting is just a pure madness by some batsman..
total fixing. for all 3 days, match was in our favour. as it was heading for tame draw, suddenly, to increase match viewership, 4th day miracle happened. ind battng score of 15/5!!! (when bhajji can score century) n result in favour of nz. agn, 5th day, match turned out in our favor. story of gr8 fixing.
The real test for Indians lie ahead in South Africa. People are talking about dropping Dravid. Remember that he has scored a century in the first innings and is still looking good. He would be the key for India in SA series. Gambhir has been a failure in this test, but hope he would get back his form in the remaining matches. Its important for him to get his form back before the SA series. Got to see how Raina fares in SA, they would for sure test him with short deliveries. So, guess Yuvi could be a better choice for that slot. The main concern is that of Bhajji. He has scored runs in this test, but he is failing big time in his primary role of bowling. There are still two more tests to get back his confidence in bowling, but if he doesnt, then it means challenge for him to find his place in playing 11 in SA. So, the remaining two tests would be a build up to the crucial SA tour. So, pull up your socks guys and play hard.

YUVRAJ BETTER THAN RAINA ANY DAY, BHAJJI WILL BE BACK AT HIS BEST SOON. JUST A DEAD WKRT IN MOTERA DIDNT HELP ANYONE

you are right about Dhobi and Gambhir being dropped. I m not sure about dropping Dravid yet, especially in the coming SA series.
