India vs New Zealand 5th ODI Highlights
Ind Bat
NZ chase
Watch cricket highlights – India vs New Zealand – 5th ODI, Auckland played on March 14, 2009.
Scoreline: India 149 all out (36.3 overs – rain curtailed 43 over game). Virender Sehwag 40 (27), Rohit Sharma 43 (74). NZ 151/2 in 23.2 overs – Jesse Ryder 63 (49), Martin Guptill 57 (50)
No Post-match presentation cos of loss of transmission
Session 1: The first seriously seamer-friendly track and everyone other than Sehwag (of course-cos he’s the one cricketer in the world for whom conditions are irrelevant) just couldn’t adjust to it or at least try and curtail their bludgeoning game. Unfortunately (personally speaking), Rohit Sharma had a bad game despite being the top-scorer. The timing and confidence was just not there and he ate up big chunks of the strike (esp with Yuvraj at the other end). O’Briend swung the ball like mad early on, then lost control, bowled a few wides and finally came up against Sehwag who took him apart. Ryder (9-29-3) and Oram (9-22-2) pretty much knocked the wind out of the Indian middle order once Sehwag was gone and one feels it will be some time before we get to see Rohit Sharma back in the ODI side. unfortunate, cos he seemed like the best contender for Laxman’s Test slot whenever VVS chooses to retire. Am really curious to see Praveen Kumar in these conditions and even as i write this he’s got McCullum. New Zealand should however win this, unless they mess it up.
Session 2: Jesse Ryder clouts Ishanth Sharma all around. The two get into a heated non-physical brawl. Ishanth sees Yuvraj put Jesse down. The two weirdly kiss and make up. Ishanth gets Ryder to inside-edge one but doesn’t celebrate at all.
NZ came out blazing. Pretty much what India tried to do as wickets fell. Only, New Zealand managed to pull it off. Guptill carried on after Ryder’s exit, displaying his fantastic timing that has been on show right through this year. Ross Taylor too found enough runs remaining on the target to pull out his legside stuff. A tough day for India but I doubt they’ll be too worried about a seamer-friendly track popping up in the Test series considering Tendulkar, Laxman and Dravid will be in that side.
Pregame: Lots of talk about India rotating players etc. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to give Irfan Pathan and Rohit Sharma a game without changing too much otherwise. For NZ, maybe it’s time for a Ross Taylor special leading into the test series.

if you are crazy this is a not a match there only exhibiton in indian players
i’am not a indian fan i like only srilanka. india side have not any valuable players i think only sachin is a player. i think newzealand will beat india next season
Sahan, U r just crazy mate… India currently has the best batting ODI lineup in the world… but, their fielding still needs some work as we saw in the last two games… It’s not only me, but all my mates in UK think so too.

i guess u r living under a rock.
i THING india playing good cricket in 2009
Hello Mr. Sahan, I think u know all about cricket…are u a “GURU” of Srilankan cricket team …Pl. don’t try your oversmart comments..If u don’t know about Indian cricket keep quiet …we came to your country …and did all the things what u have seen alreday.
Jitega bhai jitega India Jitega!!!!
Mr.sahan u re a jack ass.indians were ,are and will be the brand ambassadors of world cricket.
being an indian i know how much cricket is preached in the country.infact its religion in india. never ever dare even in ur dreams to comment on indian cricket team.
Best Luck to India!!!.
I hope India will win today!!!!
do u guys know any link to watch live cricket… cric7 is not working today
Look like the Kiwis found out the secret formula, boy.
India should have open batting with Ishant and Kumar. Sorry cric7.
Sahan,
India have won their last 4 ODI series and last 2 Test series. They are the T20 champs and the only side to beat Austrlia in 3 test series in the last dozen years. (1998, 2001,2008). New Zealand are way off. With South Africa falling again, it’s back to Australia and India.
Hi, looks like a good match, NZ consolation victory after India win the series!!
I can’t access the links from sapo, can you put them under something else please??
Thanks!

sahan i think u dont know anything about cricket if you are front of me i will kick your ass.indian team is emerging day by day.
Hey Sahan,
I don’t want to create any fight, but I know cricket, FYI I play leagues in the Carrib.
Sahan ,btw I am not an English kid, I am Indian who is living there.
india was over conf. is good they lost
So, 3 games each so far. I really hope the Kiwis can pull something out of the bag in the tests. The way India collapsed today… it could happen. I’m surprised India won the one day series. Not many teams beat NZ in NZ, so good on them.
hey,you remember longback where miss universe miss world is continously given to india because of promoting their cosmetics product in india since india is the biggest market in the world.
same is happenening ,all this is a match fixed, promotional event like WWF
May I just say that this website is absolutely fantastic. Thank you for bringing us such wonderful and beautifully edited packages. Are you guys planning to post the Women’s World Cup at any point? Thanks a bunch for this high quality stuff!
praneeth are you know about f**k, did you not know about that i will teach you & dic your ass
Please for god sakes keep your mouth shut!! sahan.. U can talk when new zealand wins on India next season. Let me guess… u are a social outcast in your community and u couldn’t take it well and quenching the frustrations online… Well… sachin is the world’s best.. Show one like sachin in ur team pal.!!! We are 20-20 winners.. where is your team in 20-20?? huh?.. Its not “Prince” who dont know about cricket.. its u Mr. OAF
India sucks. they beat da worst team and think they r da best. suckers.
There’s clearly two people that doesn’t know shit about cricket. Stop complaining about the Indian side and learn how to shut the f**k up when you’re favorite team loses against India. Sahan, India has been performing well… I don’t really see your favorite team doing shit. You’re just pissed off cause Sri Lanka got its ass wooped by India.. and if you know so much about cricket, why dont you teach your sri lankan players to stop c*** sucking and play some real cricket! If that doesn’t work why dont you get head from “head”! You’ll be spending time usefully and we won’t have to see your stupid comments on this site.
India is waste team, this time only bangladesh gonna win the world cup.
Admin,
I agree with the fact that Rohit Sharma will replace VVS when VVS calls it a day but he is being currently treated in ODI’s in the same way as Dravid was early in his career, plus he didnt get to bat at No 3 in flat wickets in Sri Lanka, the one game he got to play was a seaming track. He did first impress in a very testing track in the T20 world cup, Dhoni needs to prove to him he believes in him like Dhoni backed Yuvraj Singh during his nightmare in Australia.
Regards
Nag
thank you very much.
i think indian 1st down to last down should maintain good batting performance among all the countries in different pitches (either it is ODI OR TESTS) then only the indian cricket will become number one cricket team in the world.
