I just realized had India didn't win the match by an inning and had England put some good lead then Jaiswal could possibly have surpassed Gavaskar's 774 run record (highest runs scored by an Indian in the test series), Jaiswal concluded the current series with total of 712 runs.

It would have been a brilliant achievement but I am very much satisfied with an inning win, this type of win means complete domination and doesn't come easy.

He had a chance to go big during 1st inning though because the pitch was brilliant to bat on, had he controlled his aggression then there was a good chance of him getting another ton and possibly breaking Gavaskar's record.

Toss played crucial role as well, here pitch was getting better to bat day by day but usually it will be in the reverse, still standing up when they needed badly is something great and Aussies known for doing that and this victory doesn't surprise me much cause they have been completely dominant over Kiwis in test while playing in NZ for the last decades.

NZ team were all out for just 162 runs in first innings and Aussies were in same condition but its Marnus Labuschagne 90 runs that took them ahead of NZ. In second innings, NZ batsmen played with caution but it was too late by that time. If you give around 100 runs lead to team like Australia in first innings then its very difficult to get back in the game. Aussies once again proved that they are too good in test format.

New Zealand deserved a win, but what to say? Matt Henry's brilliant performance went in vain. They had Australia at 43/4, then 80/5 and again at 220/7. When Mitchell Starc got out, they still needed another 61 runs to win, with just 3 wickets in hand. But all of their bowlers, who had performed extremely well till then, ran out of gas. Ben Sears was impressive and took 4 wickets in the second innings. But everyone else failed, in front of the lower order (Mitchell Marsh, Alex Carey and Pat Cummins). But even now, Australia are well behind India, as far as the points table in WTC is concerned.

Matt Henry who was doing so good in first 3 days of the game failed to pick wickets when NZ needed it badly. NZ were able to break partnership between Marsh and Head but then there is 140 runs partnership between Mitchell Marsh and Alex Carey. It was first innings poor batting that costed NZ this match and the series. If NZ had not given such a huge lead in first innings then we might have different result of the game.

New Zealand team was whitewashed by Australia in Test series like T20 series. When New Zealand lost five wickets for 80 runs in England's second innings many were speculating that New Zealand might win the Test match. Maybe the New Zealand team thought they could win the match but the Australian batsmen put water on their plans with a good batting performance to win the match by three wickets. Basically a 140-run partnership between Mitchell Marsh and Alex Carey took Australia to the brink of victory. Alex Carey and Pat Cummins then put on another good partnership when Mitchell Marsh got out adding 61 runs.

New Zealand continues sucking against their Trans-Tasmanian rivals on their own turf. Southee should have given more overs to Sears and Henry instead of bowling himself. Bad captaincy!

Carey and Marsh resurrected them brilliantly while Cummins was the great wall as usual. The current Australian team is truly something else.

The world champions showed their mettle once again, proving why they're the best. Australia has a knack for turning tough situations into easy victories. Their lower-order batsmen stepped up brilliantly, leaving the BlackCaps bowlers helpless. After their nail-biting victory in Christchurch, Australia now sits in second place in the WTC25 standings.

New Zealand vs Australia, 2nd Test 2nd innings is one the way. New Zealand collected 162 and 372 runs. New Zealand didn't Play well in 1st inning but they developed themselves a lot in 2nd innings. They made huge runs, Tom Latham did 73, Rachin Ravindra did 82 runs. Even Williamson have done century. Even they also bowled well too in the start of 2nd inngins. Australia collected 256 runs in 1st inngins but in 2nd innings, they are struggling and lost 4 wickets at 77 runs till now. Most of top batsman out and still need 202 runs. It'll be hard for Australia to come to back. Maybe they would lost the match.

New Zealand is still having the upper hand in the test match against Australia. The Aussies still need another 202 runs, with 6 wickets at hand. Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh are at the crease and if they lose two more wickets, then the tail will start with Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc. Ben Sears seems to be in exceptional form. But the biggest threat for Australia comes from Matt Henry. So far he has taken 9 wicket so far and I am sure that the tally will go further up by tomorrow.

New Zealand team fought well in second innings to keep there hopes alive for the series. Australians have got a lead of 94 runs in first innings but it was neutralised by New Zealand 362 runs in second innings. Matt Henry bowled 23 overs in first innings and got 7 wickets while so far in second innings he has bowled only 9 overs and got 2 wickets. Australians defiantly will trying to figure out a plan on how to survive Matt Henry since that's the only way they can survive in this match.

It was another fantastic day for the Blackcaps, especially with their bowlers turning the game around. Matt Henry has been outstanding, and Ben Sears is also performing well. Tomorrow's cricket match looks promising, especially if Matt Henry maintains his excellent bowling form. However, they need to watch out for the dangerous partnership between Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head. It's crucial for New Zealand to clean them up early in the morning session; otherwise, the match might slip away from them. The morning session will be the most critical period of play tomorrow and will likely determine the outcome of the match.

NZ need to break the current partnership between Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head as quickly as possible. Aussies have the legacy that there is always a batsmen that performs when rest are not. We saw a rescue innings from Marnus Labuschagne in first innings and if current partnership is not broken game will slip away from NZ. Good batting from NZ in second innings and now they have a chance to level the series.

Australian batting is consistently falling down which is surely concern for them now after third day of second test match we have Australia out of the game because they still needed 202 runs and their all top order back to pavilion thanks to Matt Henry who took 9 wickets in this match and still can bring more damage to them in second inning we have good batting from the New Zealand four batsmen able to score 50+ and Scott Kuggeleijn able to score 44 runs which helps them for having 372 runs and lead of 279 runs which is good enough on this pitch and then bowlers also done good job 4 early wickets on just 34 runs

I placed my bet in favour of Australia but Australia are back seated after their top order four bastem are gone in the second inning of the second test match against New Zealand. Australia needs a brilliant more than hundred runs partnership and more than 202 runs to win this test match and win this series. New Zealand's brilliant bowling performance Matt Henry did amazing by taking nine wickets so far in this test game. New Zealand played well four batsmen scored fifty runs that helped to score a big lead for Australia. I think Matt Henry will take ten or more wickets in this test match and surely will win the game if they take the wickets Of Mitchell and Travis Head then New Zealand win the match and level the series.

We have seen how New Zealand were beaten by Australia in the T20 series between Australia and New Zealand and they were defeated by Australia in the first Test match as well. The New Zealand cricket team finally made a chance to win the second Test match between New Zealand and Australia. New Zealand's bowlers have squeezed the Australian batsmen from the start in Australia's second innings currently collecting 77 runs for 4 wickets. If the New Zealand bowlers can keep bowling the way they are bowling, they will be able to restrict Australia to very few runs in the second innings. New Zealand batted better in the second innings than the first innings as a result of which they scored 372 runs. Similarly New Zealand bowlers bowled well during Australia's second innings due to which they have a chance to win this match.

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for clarifying that. I believe Ishan Kishan was one of them who was neglecting domestic stuff for the IPL.

Chahar and Bishnoi also pulled the same stunt.

Updates

BCCI is not holding back anymore and walking the talk by making an example of players like Ishan Kishan or to some extent Shreyas Iyer. For now no annual contract for Either of them

There were signs of many young players taking everything casual in domestic cricket because of their IPL contracts. This Ishan Kishan's drama Opened the Pandora Box, now players will think twice about skipping Ranji etc.

Another update...

BCCI is on the roll and trying to make test cricket more lucrative for Indian players. These new incentives are for the national team and from now on, test specialists (or test regulars) players will earn more.

I am sure, they are working on something for Ranji Players as well. Very pleasing to see BCCI making an effort for test cricket in the IPL era and much needed initiative.

I think it is a problem that Australia batters didn't do well in the second test match against New Zealand. They need to score 202 runs but many of their best players are already out. And you can see Matt Henry did really well by getting 9 wickets which is making things hard for Australia. It may get even worse for them in the next innings.
If we talk about New Zealand so New Zealand did well in batting. Four players scored more than 50 runs and Scott got 44 runs. This helped them get a big lead of 279 runs. By the way Mitchell and Travis are on the pitch so they can change the position of the match at any time.

The New Zealand team has performed well in the second innings, and the Australian team has a lead of 253 runs so far. And two wickets have already fallen, so if the Australian team can't save the wickets, they are more likely to lose in the second innings. Labuschagne in the first innings he performed well in the first innings and collected 90 runs from his bat. He was dismissed for just six runs in the opening moments of the match, so the Australian team is now under a lot of pressure in terms of reliable batting. Green and Khawaja will be the current batsmen if these two batsmen can build a partnership for a long time then there is definitely a possibility of victory in the end.

New Zealand made a brilliant comeback in the second innings. Glenn Phillips and Kuggeleijn's 53-run partnership was instrumental in giving Australia a target of 279 runs. Australia came under pressure early on when they came to bat to win. Australia scored 34 runs with the loss of four wickets, Ben Sears & Matt Henry destroyed Australia's top order batsmen. For now, the match is in favor of New Zealand. Australia will start batting tomorrow from a score line of 77/4, the fifth wicket partnership between Head & Mitchell Marsh will be crucial. Tomorrow's fifth wicket partnership will depend on which way the match will go. If New Zealand can break this wicket early tomorrow, the match will go in New Zealand's favour.

The New Zealand team in the second test match of Australia vs New Zealand was bowled out for just 162 runs due to batting failure in the second test match. However, the New Zealand batsmen turned around brilliantly and batted brilliantly in the second innings. In the second innings, Australia was put under more pressure by the New Zealand bowlers. The current score of the Australian team is 77 runs for 4 wickets in 24 overs. Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head if these two batsmen can bat well then it will be very dangerous for New Zealand so New Zealand bowlers should get the player out very quickly then the Australian team will be under a lot of pressure.

After a bad batting in the first innings, the New Zealand team made a great comeback in the second innings. The team collected only 162 runs in the first innings. I thought it was not possible for New Zealand to win this match. But in the second innings every player of New Zealand is batting brilliantly. The New Zealand team has already managed to collect 345 runs by losing 6 wickets.

Tom Latham (73)
Kane Williamson (51)
Rachin Ravindra (82)
Daryl Mitchell (58)

Scott Kuggeleijn was also unbeaten on 38 off 36 balls, and Phillips scored 16 off 45 balls.

The New Zealand team has managed to take a big lead of 251 runs. Batting against such a big target on this pitch in the last innings is much more difficult to win. New Zealand will likely deliver 300+ targets today. At the moment England has more chances to win the match.

New Zealand could not give a target of more than 300 runs. New Zealand amassed 372 runs in the second innings and a descent of 279 runs provided a target. Australian bowlers did not bowl well. Pat Cummins took 4 wickets and Nathan Lyn 3 wickets. Hazlewood, who bowled brilliantly in the first innings, managed to pick up just one wicket in the second innings.

I agree with you that it becomes much more difficult for the batsmen to make big collections in the last innings on this pitch. Gradually the pitch became completely bowling friendly. Batting on a target of 279 runs, it is challenging for Australia to win. And Australia has already lost two wickets. Australia lost the two important wickets of Smith and Labuschagne to collect only 22 runs.

The Australian team is batting at a big target. But their top-order batsmen failed to get off to a good start. I would say that New Zealand have the highest chances of winning this match right now.

At the end of the third day, the Australian batsmen managed to collect only 77 runs and lost four wickets. Smith, Usman Khawaja, Green and Labuschagne have already returned to the dressing room. Australia need to collect 202 more runs to win. It is difficult to score 202 runs on the fourth day on this pitch. At the same time, Australia's top-order batsmen have failed to perform well.

After facing a batting defeat in the first innings, New Zealand made a great comeback in the second innings. It was unthinkable that New Zealand would score so many runs in the second innings. However, the New Zealand batsmen batted responsibly and managed to set up a big target. New Zealand can win the match only if the bowlers bowl some controlled bowling.
