Looking forward to this Test Series starting tonight after NZ made mincemeat of Ireland last week.
New Zealand might fancy their chances in this test
Harry B living by the sword…..NZ making the most of the conditions, though once again they put down Harry….with Ravindra dropping a soda……Harry B does live an enchanted life at times….well actually all the time……would actually average under 30 if teams could catch him first chance offered.
Good to see after all the’IPL rubbish, the bowlers get a chance to shine for a change, in a bat n ball contest. NZ will need a Brook like cameo from Phillips to gain parity. Or does Latham declare, make the most of the conditions, and hopefully the conditions improve like in the WTC final, and NZ bat last chasing a total?
Bat on mate,however long that lasts.
Reduce the deficit as much as possible.
Still 4 days to go.
Give me Test Cricket over the white ball stuff every day of the week!
That’s why Marnus average was so inflated, from memory he was dropped around 30% of the time he batted in his first few years, now luck has turned people are holding onto chances and he isn’t anywhere near the batter we thought he was
well how about that day
even forgiving the dampness and greentop
New Zealand must have been cock a hoop skittling England for 140
then hurtled back downward shortly after being an almost ridiculous 6 for 29
depending on weather this could be another one done inside 3 days
Spot on PH…..pretty sure BH mentioned something about Marnus and his early 60+ average due to dropped chances
I better listen to Sport FM UK Correspondent Paul Bryce again.
I’m sure the word pitch was used in descriptions of yesterday’s play.
