You really can't hate this New Zealand team, nice guys and always play top notch cricket against everyone (Not Australia tho). Match is heading into last session and draw seems favorable option. Kiwis are already playing for draw, draw here is win for them. They are 4 down so India really want couple of quick wickets to make thing interesting.
India need 6 wickets and NZ need 158 runs to win, 31 overs left.

Oh wow now 5 wickets.

Bangladesh managed to score only 156 runs in their second innings. And gave Pakistan a target of 202 runs. That's not enough to win. If they had given a target of 250 runs, then maybe the match would have been drawn or Bangladesh would have won. Pakshithan scored 36 runs without losing a wicket.
The match will start on the third day of the first Test match between Bangladesh and Pakistan. Bangladesh made 39 in their second innings till yesterday, losing 4 wickets. In this thread yesterday, someone said that even if Bangladesh loses all the wickets in 100 runs, he will not be surprised. Now it is seen that Bangladesh is likely to lose all the wickets in 100 runs. If Liton and Mushfiqur get out fast today, they will be able to collect more than 50-60 on the scoreboard of all other batsmen.
Mushfiqur Rahim has been out. He managed to add only 16 runs to the scoreboard. Now the last hope of Bangladesh team is Liton and Miraj. Yasir Ali is now with Liton at the crease. He is a new player, less experienced. If Liton and Miraj can't play well then Bangladesh is going to lose in one more test match.Bangladesh lost 5 wickets to collect 100 runs. Yasir Ali is out of the field due to injury. Now batting are Liton Das and Miraj. Bangladesh pair can somehow collect 101 more runs. And gave Pakistan a target of 240-250. Will be a good enough target. But if Bangladesh gives less than 200 target then they will be defeated. Bangladesh and ahead by 145 runs.
India gave New Zealand a target of 284 runs. Since New Zealand had only one day, it was a big enough target. On the fifth day, the bowlers still get some extra advantage on the pitch. So it's a good enough target to fight. New Zealand scored 56 runs losing just one wicket. They need 228 runs to win. The match is more likely to be a draw.

New Zealand had a great opportunity to pull off an upset, but they wasted it. At one point, India were at 51/5, with a lead of just 100 runs. Ideally they should have wrapped up the proceedings in quick time and set a target of 120-130. But the Indian lower order provided fierce resistance, especially Ravichandran Ashwin, Wriddhiman Saha and Axar Patel. Shreyas Iyer impressed once again. And the weakest point for New Zealand was their spinners. In this match, they proved to be completely useless.
Pakistan can still fight and win the match, all they need to do is restrict Bangladesh as soon as possible and chase something below 200 runs and they have the batsman that are good playing against the spin.
When it comes to New Zealand they are not known to play spin very well especially in Asian conditions and hence it is a huge task for them to face spin the entire day and go for the win. From what i predict, they will play positive cricket and if wickets starts falling and the pitch is horrible to bat, then they will try to play defensively and it will create problems to some of the batsman.
I am not confident about Kiwis that they can survive in this situation with last day pitch is very helpful for spinners and three quality spinners bowling against you with not good experienced batsman very hard task for visitors but still as situation going all possibilities available for both teams with big advantage to home team. If they decided for defensively then surely it's mean they are going for suicide and playing positive game mean they are going to open both doors for their own self as win or draw because we can't right off them here they are good and better team for all conditions after having very good results in England and recently in the UAE.When it comes to New Zealand they are not known to play spin very well especially in Asian conditions and hence it is a huge task for them to face spin the entire day and go for the win.

For Pakistan Match its first session will give all shape because in last three days this play very vital role so if bowlers takes early wickets then it's mean Pakistan can win easily in fourth days play.

Currently, the best thing both test matches wide open for any team specially now New Zealand is having some good time they have 90 overs 280 runs with 9 wickets in hand even it's not easy for any team to bat against Indian spinners on fifth day in India but still good competition between both quality teams.
Bangladesh vs Pakistan It's also still wide open tomorrow first session is very important if Pakistani bowlers take some early wickets then surely they will have some better chance because any target less than 150 is good for them but still Bangladesh batting can give them surprise.

We have full two days plus the remaining of the last session left in this match. I think its very early to say who will win this one. Bangladesh has an upper hand on the match but it is very important for them to score runs now. If they are bowled out for 160-180 runs, things will become very interesting. Chasing last won't be easy either.
It is hard to predict who is having the advantage now as Bangladesh is only leading by 83 runs and they already lost 4 wickets and it is not going to be easy to bat in the final two days. Pakistan started well but then the rest of the players failed to take that momentum.We have full two days plus the remaining of the last session left in this match.

India is in a strong position as New Zealand needs 280 runs to win and they already lost a wicket and India will be using the spinners the entire day tomorrow and it is going to be difficult for the New Zealand batsman to handle them.

Eventually India has given a target of 284 runs to the New Zealand team. The surface of the pitch is helping the bowlers more now. New Zealand has lost their first wickets today and the match will continue on day five. I have a strong feelings that India will win the match. There is a big difference between the betting odds and it is fully in favour of India now.
This match is going in a zig zag manner and everyday we have a new winner but the very next day things get totally changed, lets see what happens tomorrow. You can try your luck by betting on NZ and enjoy a feast for the Christmas ahead. Its lyer debut test match and he is having performance of his life, what a way to start your cricket career.

Bangladesh v Pakistan and India v New Zealand are the two Test matches at now at the exciting moment. I am confused about which match to enjoy. Bangladesh made only 330 but now Pakistan has lost 7 wickets for 229 runs. My guess is they will lose all the wickets in maximum 10-15 overs.
Bangladesh has started their second innings with the lead of 44 runs, but they have lost their first 4 wickets in just 25 runs. At the end of day 3, they have 83 runs lead now. If Mushfiqur and Liton plays like the first innings then Bangladesh will set a big target. In that case this match might end as a draw. Pakistan will win the match if Bangladeshi batting lineup collapse again on the start of day 4.The performance of Indian batsmen is very weak in the second innings. Now their collection is 119, they have lost 6 wickets. They are just 168 runs ahead of New Zealand. If they fail to give a target of at least 250 runs, they are more likely to be defeated.

Pakistan managed to score 286 runs. I wouldn't say it's a bad collection. If Pakistan bowls well now, they still have a chance to win. Pakistan will not want to draw the match, they will definitely want to win. They have to bowl well to win. If Bangladesh can score more than 300 runs, it will be difficult for Pakistan to win the match.

The performance of Indian batsmen is very weak in the second innings. Now their collection is 119, they have lost 6 wickets. They are just 168 runs ahead of New Zealand. If they fail to give a target of at least 250 runs, they are more likely to be defeated.

Pakshithan has scored 145 runs and has not lost any wicket yet. Bangladesh bowlers are very weak bowling. If the bowlers of Bangladesh cannot bring down these two wickets this morning, then surely Bangladesh will lose this Test match and will suffer a miserable defeat. Pakistan needs only 185 runs. Since they have not lost any wickets yet. So collecting 185 runs is not a difficult task for them.
Things have changed bit after the partnership is broken and suddenly Pakistan have lost four wickets. There are two things which happen here. Either Pakistani batsmen are bowled out within 25- - 260 runs and then Bangladesh play fast and hope they win the match in the last innings. On the other hand if Pakistan are able to chase 330 runs, then we may be heading towards the draw. Abid Aliis still playing so more chances that Pakistan will chase the 330.
First of all, I do not rely on the performance of Bangladeshi batsmen. Even though Pakistan lost all their wickets before 250, Pakistan still has a chance to win the match. I will not be surprised if Bangladesh lost all their wickets in 100 runs in the second innings. However, Pakistan's collection during the lunch break is 203/4.
Yeah, India is struggling right now after losing 5 wickets for 51 runs (with lead is around 110 runs) and with last recognized batsman Shreyas Iyer. New Zealand's pace attack seems better than host's like regardless of flat pitches their pacers are making the most along with spinners which might be the difference between these two sides.
Yesterday we were talking about draw but now its very much on NZ side. With 5 wickets down and as @JSRAW said Saha may not bat so they are 6 down right now. India need to set target of atleast 250 to challenge NZ but with only Lyer as last recognized batsman it looks very much difficult. such bowling was not expected from NZ pacers on such flat pitch. When two strong teams play against each other, the game can change at any time. India's batting in the first innings looked like they had collected well enough, the second day New Zealand's two openers destroyed the Indian bowlers. At that time it seemed that New Zealand was in complete control of the match. However, after the first two batsmen were out, no other player could play well. As a result, New Zealand lost all their wickets for just 296 runs. Then we guessed that maybe India would easily gave a target more than 300 and win. But now we are seeing the batting disaster of India again. The match will now be controlled again by the New Zealand bowlers.
They are virtually 6 down. W Saha is struggling with his neck and didn't come to wicket keeping yesterday so there must be serious problem with him so i doubt he'll come to bat and there is no replacement for such injury.
Super substitute cannot bat? I am sorry I am not fully aware of latest rules on substitutions. I guess anything with the lead of 200 to 250 will be dependable but we cannot ignore the fact that currently New Zealand is test champion hence I guess they also got better chances on this test match from here. But it seems Saha might come to bat, just saw him padded up in the dressing room. Iyer-Ashwin duo looking extremely good and if by any chance this pair successfully add 70 odds runs from here then NZ might start panicking, lead is already 133 runs. Anything above 220 runs is bonus.
