India vs West Indies 3rd ODI: Can India lead the series again?

All West Indies players’ steady performance able to equal the four-match One-day international series and they are going to play the third match on 3^rd July. What Dhoni’s men thinking about and will they over come the serious batting slowdown in the next match? Indian batting in the 2^nd one-day disappointed all the fans. I want to mention three names Gautam Gambhir, Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja who failed to score double figure in the previous matches. India exiled from the Twenty20 championship earlier which was totally unexpected because they dominated all the teams with an iron hands.

Cricinfo wrote:

India's bowlers were indisciplined in the first game, bowling 19 wides and two front-foot no-balls, and the trait seemed to have rubbed off on their batsmen. Gautam Gambhir, Rohit Sharma and Yuvraj, each got out chasing wide deliveries, while the tail, with the exception of RP Singh, who added 101 with Dhoni to save India's blushes, was hapless. Dhoni, at the end of the game, pointed out that over-reliance on Yuvraj, who has scores of 131 and 35 in the series, was not going to win India the series. And with an important game coming up, India's top order will have to step up, with greater preparedness to counter the short ball.

The visitors brought single change in the bowling side in the second match but have to wait for that day, which squads will they declare for the 3^rd competitive match for Indian to take the series lead again. Only skipper MS Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh has continued the successive of well batting. Although YK Pathan did well in the first ODI, as a lower order batsmen it is good enough but second time he could not add any single runs when batting order was broken down with the hit of West Indies bowling.

India vs New Zealand 3rd Test cricket 2nd day Highlights

Indian had to close its first innings of 3^rd Cricket Test just for 379 runs and it seems that they can loose or have to face a huge contest with the Kiwis. But now everything is in India’s control. The 3^rd test match was taken place at Basin Reserve, Wellington. Both the first inning had to end in a single day. New Zealand has scored 197 runs and India come to wicket for 2^nd Innings. Really, India presents them in a great way before that IPL T20 and World Championships Twenty20 tournament second season that will be placed in South Africa and England.

 

Here is the text highlights of New Zealand’s first innings wicket fall. Indian bowlers hit to the host camp in a successive way. Zahir Khan, the successful bowlers at this moment for 3^rd test first innings. His aggressive bowling threats Kiwi batting side and they had to close inning just for 197 runs. Only LRPL Taylor cashed 44 runs and BB McCullum added persolally 24 runs. Others batsmen could not add any more big scores to run the scoreboard well.

  

Fall of wickets 1-21 (Guptill, 6.6 ov), 2-31 (Flynn, 10.1 ov), 3-80 (McIntosh, 26.6 ov), 4-98 (Ryder, 32.1 ov), 5-120 (Taylor, 41.1 ov), 6-125 (Franklin, 43.2 ov), 7-138 (Vettori, 46.3 ov), 8-160 (Southee, 54.4 ov), 9-181 (McCullum, 61.3 ov), 10-197 (O'Brien, 64.6 ov)

 

India is on wicket now for 2nd innings at Basin Reserve, Wellington. They lost one valuable wicket of V Sehwag who scored 12 runs only and added 48 runs in the 1^st innings. Now, Rahul Dravid and Gautom Gambhir are in on the wickets unbeaten.

 

India is in a good stage to take the series wins. By leading 233 runs just after 2^nd day and the 3^rd day is very important for the gust. If they keep the scoreboard in running then at the end of the 3^rd day they can call the host New Zealand batting for second innings. It is clear that New Zealand is in big pressure in both bowling and batting. They will try heart and soul to overcome the series loose. The Black Caps can back to the series if they bid India earlier and can back to the batting like second test.

If may bring some changes in New Zealand squad in the 3^rd ODI that is going to take place on 8 March 2009. The host is behind a step after losing the first ODI alongside India. It hopes there could change too in the 2^nd ODI, especially Brendon McCullum who faced thumb injury but he come to field to dominate Indian bowlers. But for the 3^rd ODI, it expects that captain Daniel Vettori should keep out because he is going to become a father of a child. But her wife Mary is facing little bit problem that is why he may not present in the 3^rd ODI against the guest India.

 

In his absence, Jeetan Patel will cover the gap of spin side. Jeetan Patel was debuted with ODIs on Aug 31, 2005 against Zimbabwe. He just has played 37 ODIs and picked up 42 wickets. The best bowling figure is 3 wickets to 11 runs. He used to play first class Cricket on the side of England Lions. Although the latest bowling figure is not good, he just picked up one wicket in the last five-ODIs against Australia.

 

It expects that there will be not changed in that squad. The T20I winning hero Brendon McCullum will be available as well. Although the 2^nd ODI was proponent for bad weather but in the first, ODI MJ Guptill played the roll as key batsmen who scored 64 runs from 70 balls.
