Prakash: "Till about a couple of years back, Suresh Raina used to be very reliable batsman on Indian pitches. However, recently, he seems to have regressed as a batsman and become very iffy even against ordinary bowlng. While he appears to be a hard working guy, he does appear underconfident at the crease."

Milne to Kohli, no run, short ball, pulled to midwicket where he is caught, but he can't be out because it is a free hit, the throw comes back to Milne, who did really well to get back to the stumps but he dropped the ball before breaking the stumps, or else Dhoni would have been out

Mark: "You'd have to think that this partnership is the crucial one. If they add 40-50+ India will probably win. If NZ can break the partnership early they'll be firm favourites."
