Kiwis prepared so well for this test series. They are playing as a team and focus on team success. India should learn.

[@bnallappa]

NZ are always well prepared in three formats and usually get the better of India. India is overconfident unfortunately.

Virat after settling in london id finding it difficult to aclimatise to home conditions. How big a player you are, cannot score runs without playing serious domestic cricket. Same goes with Rohit. He has lost his reflexes in batting and fielding. He has dropped maximum catches in the slips. Captaincy very poor, attimes can see brain fades from him. He must be told to perform or perish. The same goes with Jadeja and Ashwin. When Phillips and Santner can turn web around the Indian batsmen why Ash and Jaddu struggling. We want them to perform in bowling department. Rahul's body language explains something is missing in the dressing room. He is totally blacked out. Rahul must go back to domestic cricket if he wants to continue playing for the country. Sarfaraz's 151 in the previous innings shows 80% runs scored behind the wickets and Kiwis in this test changed their line and length and it can be seen last few innings he got out caught in covers or midoff. His play towards the V has to be seen. He is talented but sooner he understands the better. Gill is showing inconsistancy and same goes with Jaiswal. He seems totally confused with the approach. This has come post Gambhir's era. The new coaching staff has confused the players with the batting and bowling approach. Post Gambhir era does not look rosy. BCCI must get into soon with proper introspection.

Axar can be very useful instead of Jadeja who is not adding much value with ball. He is still good with bat but bowling of jadeja has been detoriated

[@MeNikhilDavid]

Axar is good in T20 not in test, and by the way jadeja's bowling average is almost equal to ashwin's bowling average

[@ammarkardar6427]

Bro axar got fifer in Ahmedabad in test Also he scored runs in indore test when india was on backfoot against Australia last year he is better with both bat and bowl 650 runs in 14 matches with 55 wickets is not a joke in test

[@RAHULKUMAR-mu6bq]

After such shameful batting in the first innings, India deserves to lose this match. 😡😡😡😡

[@kevinmenezes8386]

Reason NZ lost 2-0 in SL was because they found themselves on the wrong side of the toss. Infact they won their 1st toss in Asian conditions in this Test after losing 5 consecutive tosses (2 tosses each in Bang & SL) Also last time they won a toss in India was 2012 when Kohli scored 100 & 50 to chase 250 in 4th innings. They lost 6 consecutive tosses since then. NZ always prepare well for big series. The only poor planning I have seen from them was 2024 WT20 where their 2nd team was playing against Pak and their 1st choice players were either playing IPL or warming the bench. Also their warm up games got washed and they didnt play like a team

[@SuyashAsthana3107]

Exactly they were under prepare under cook in t20 world cup but I always say new zealand still be a new zealand I don't understand why people underestimate nz team just because there was no hype at all

[@deepaksah7448]

I can't digest the very fact newzealand defeated india in india after 12 years

[@alokanand6803]

NZ playing better; period!! WTC slot on the line but really difficult given the lacklustre form of premier batsmen.

[@pragyatboruah5218]

Missing Pujara and vihari

[@Sreeprayag]

Vihari ?

[@aash987]

Chokli could not even able to play against spin.

[@shivadash]

Only blaming the pitch won't resolve batting issues 😢😢😢😮😮 very cheap performance.getting out in just 46 !!! What's wrong with the guys,no matter how good the opponent's bowlers!!!

[@VlogDiaries3]

Nz❤

[@Actually-y7j]

Anushka and Athiya would have played far better on this pitch. Chak de India..!!

[@sayantanghatak24]

Not only staring a series defeat but also a whitewash.

[@vaishalivaishali4715]

Jadeja just retire from all formats yaar....Axar Patel better player than you...and what is the need to play Akash Deep when Rohit wants to start with spinners only ...kuldeep was better option

[@readuntildeath4237]

Didi uske runs kohli aur rohit se jayada hai is test mein. Yaha par senior batters ko step up Karna tha series line par thi

[@deepaksah7448]

Bhai ashwin, jadeja ko ab thakyou kheh do washi,ravi vishnoi,axar,kuldeep inpe ab aage badho

[@readuntildeath4237]

Bhai ye batting collapse hui hai spin bowling aachi hai. Inke jagah axar kuldeep hote toh bhi haar jaate

[@MeNikhilDavid]

Kl Rahul, pujara, rahane would have played well in this pitch.

[@sreejithraj1270]

For Godsake, please don't bring back KL Rahul, such a failure he is with paltry average of 33 in more than 50 test matches and also destroyed the career of many batsmen.

[@Abcdefg-d6m]

Proud of you kiwiz

[@shivadash]

Rohit, Virat should take retirement from tests, they are just making things worse 😢😢😢

[@Trajan2401]

🇳🇿 😁

[@deepaksah7448]

Haarna ek baadth hoti hai yeh toh roundh rahe hai

[@ricksanches3664]

Sarfaraz should be removed, such a bad fielder

[@MeNikhilDavid]

Rohit should give up his captaincy, and kohli should become captain.

[@Abcdefg-d6m]

Where are those unemployed bjp trollar gangster Come out now hindutva is loosing badly
