Simon Doull and Stephen Fleming - Another gorgeous day here in Christchurch, and expect the same throughout the rest of the evening. It'll cool down a touch from the 25-26 degree high we've had, but I'm looking forward to this evening's game. Right, we are on the same surface as we played on Thursday night. So the dimensions for you: 77m straight down the ground, 69 away to the west—that's Lockie Ferguson's number—and 78 away to the right for the right-handers. If you can think of a player who wore number 78, let us know. It's Sky Sports. We might give you a mention next time. Stephen Fleming is alongside me to tell us a little bit more about the surface. Stephen, what do you see? Well, it's very... this time it's the middle of October, and this pitch is very brown. It's a good covering of grass, which is really good. But what it does do is give you an opportunity to see where the bowlers were bowling the other day. There are some indentations because of how thick and patchy the grass is. We're on a good length, and we talked a lot the other day about the batting, which was magnificent. So today the focus is on the bowling: what can they do? I think they were a little bit short the other day, and these indentations suggest there's a lot of work from here backwards, not so much full. But it takes courage to bowl full because these batters are so good hitting down the ground. But if there's a little bit of movement on offer, the wickets have to come into play. Expect your mid-on and your mid-off to maybe be a little bit further back, maybe hide on the edge of the circle if you want to go a little bit fuller. Might be two left-handers for India tonight. We're speculating here a little bit, but if that is the case, Michael Bracewell just a touch earlier with the ball? Well, if nothing's well, there's a little northe west (wind) coming in through this side. So if you think of a left-hander is batting this end, a little bit of drift, a bit of hold may turn away. So that could be a very good option, and one the New Zealanders might consider, because there's a lot of power in that Indian top order. Well, New Zealand is 1-0 down in the series. They need to get back into it tonight. Surface is beautiful, the outfield looks absolutely magnificent, with a slight breeze across the ground. It's a great night for cricket.
