Ind vs Nz Is this going to be a boring series?

[Laaloo]

^^^ Maybe this is why

Fifty percent of the Tests between India and New Zealand have been drawn (25 out of 50). Only India versus Pakistan has a higher draw percentage (38 out of 59).

^^^ Maybe this is why

Not only that.. there is sense of meekness among players. No real rivalry at any level. Two times i really wanted to beat NZ was after we lost to them in the 1992 world cup and after Fleming's sarcastic comments about Indian players after the 2003 series in NZ.

Maybe for neutrals. Definitely won't be boring for Indian fans, hoping we will be able to see Rahane,Kohli, and Pujara all play together. I reeeeeeeeeealllllly hope they don't draft in Badrinath and Raina. If both of them play, then yeah, it will be boring.

I am hoping to see atleast a Double from Sehwag .. and two 100s from Kohli in this series. Anything short of this and I would be dissapointed.

[Vilander]

I want to see Ishant,Umesh,Sachin and Pujara to do well. Kohli and Gambhir will probably not get out against NZ anyway.

Will depend on the pitches.We may have an interesting series after all.lets see.

I think Zak will destroy this inexperienced NZ top order.... not sure about our ability to finish things off though. Anyhow, all pitches will be win-toss and bat-first type of situations so either way we have something to look forward to.... zak or fatty viru and gauti :yay:

[Clarke]

You kidding ? We'll be facing the renowned spin bowling pair of Jeetan Patel & Tarun Nethula!

I was about to post the same.

I'm excited to see how the young bats fare.

[phaedrus]

(almost) brand new middle order after 16 odd years. really excited to see how they perform

[vvvslaxman]

Let us see who plays first.. We have few options. Hope they don't consider "part time ability" as a factor to select someone.
