Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan has admitted that Team India is in a tough position in the third Test and will find it difficult to save this game. His team was placed at 112 for 4 in their fourth-innings' in pursuit of 445 runs. "It is going to be hard for us tomorrow," said Dhawan, who scored 37 runs in the second innings. "It is not easy to bat out there," Dhawan said. "Sometimes it is keeping straight, sometimes it is turning. We are going to look to build a big partnership and spend time in the middle. England is in a good position at the moment."
Match fixing is a crime in New Zealand
New Zealand lawmakers have unanimously supported legislation which would make match fixing a criminal offense in time for next year's Cricket World Cup. A bill providing penalties of up to seven years in prison for those who try to influence the outcome of a sports event or race passed its first reading in Parliament and could become law by the end of the year. Justice minister Judith Collins cited the recent life ban imposed on New Zealand cricketer Lou Vincent for involvement in match fixing as an indication New Zealand is not immune to corruption in sport. Collins said "match-fixing is a growing problem internationally and has been described as the number one threat to sport."
ICC allow India to appeal Jadeja's fine
The International Cricket Council has backtracked and allowed India to appeal Ravindra Jadeja's fine for an incident with England's James Anderson. Jadeja was found guilty of "conduct contrary to the spirit of the game" on a downgraded charge, and fined 50 percent of his match fee from the first test at Trent Bridge, where he and Anderson had a confrontation at lunch on day two. The ICC said then the fine could not be appealed, but changed its mind after India insisted its all-rounder was blameless. The ICC says in a release that Jadeja's appeal will be heard at the same time as Anderson's hearing on Friday. Anderson faces a higher-level charge of pushing and abusing Jadeja, and could be banned for up to four tests.
