New ball is due. THey should have tried Ashwin with older ball.

Exactly. He was getting good turn and dip yday and that lambu kiwi mudcherchood is more used to pace bowling. They could have given him couple of overs to see how  he was doing. We have to get kiwis under 150 to have any chance.

Atleast two out of Pujara, Kohli, Rahane and Vihari have to play out of their skins to save this game now. I've zero hopes on Shaw. Mayank and Vihari don't inspire much either.

Ur premier bowler looks penetrative for first time in over a month, he gets I wicket and a close LBW shout in 2.5 overs of bowling. Then just 3 overs before the new ball, u take him off to 'save' him for new ball :hysterical:.

 

Result - from 234/7, u get a momentum shift, new batsman smacks a few and feels at home. By the time u take new ball (was old one really that ineffective??  Around the world, new balls are known to be run-scoring friendly), Ur premier bowler goes for 2 fours, and then after 4 overs of pace with new ball u turn to SPIN :hysterical:

 

Meanwhile, this 8th wicket partnership goes beyond 50 in a low scoring match.

 

Chalk one more up for koach school of chicken-headed captaincy.
