India v. New Zealand - 4th ODI

Question

Well, after the bloody rain washed away my sure winner in the 2nd ODI, I laid off the 3rd.

4th is coming up and already Bulter is Out for NZ, Southee has been given the stiff boot up the rear, Vettori returns, and Tendulkar is up in the air with a pulled stomach muscle.

Odds are around $1.50 for India, $2.50 for NZ.

Perhaps if Tendulkar is ruled out, the $2.50 might be worth a sniff.

What's the latest from those in the know?

Made a killing on the 3rd match, went large, particularly with Vettori out and after the Kiwis made the error of putting the Indians into bat first. IMO, the Kiwis would be better off putting the pressure on the Indians chasing a target.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;With Vettori back and Tendulkar out it does make the match-up a little more even.  &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Despite the record on this ground, I would think that batting first would be the best option, so the toss could be crucial.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Still think that India has too much strike power though.

I might have a little dabble on the Kiwi&#x27;s at $2.50.&#xD;&#xA;McCullum and Vetorri are crucial to their chances, obviously...

New Zealand ml @ $2.50 (2)

The kiwis win the toss and make no mistake in batting first. However...there is a bit of dampness about and if they lose a few early wickets they could be in trouble, as Dhoni alerted, the kiwis will be uncertain what target they need to set to be competitive against the Indians. There is the possibility of rain and that could assist the kiwis if DL impacts upon the Indians run chase.

With Sharma back for the Indians, I'm tipping a wicket or two earlish and therefore think the Indians can win. GL All

The inside edges and wides have slowed down for NZ, 19 after 6 overs.  Tight bowling now from the Indians

270/5 off 47 overs good fightback from McGlashan and Elliot..That cover should be adjusted in NZ favour a little with DL..Need Wickets fast.

Aussie Battler · Answer

Kiwis finish on 5/270 in what has been shortened to a 47 over game.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Not sure if this will be enough though. Like the Australian series, they just seem to be a little conservative with their batting. They let down beautifully towards the back-end of their innings, but should have started attacking earlier instead of finishing with 5 sticks still in the shed.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Still, let&#x27;s hope they can bowl tight and get an early breakthrough, or 3
