Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final

[Bovidae]

I would hope Stead uses these 2 tests to look at the options for the 5th bowler and plays Mitchell in the 2nd test. Unfortunately, I doubt he is!

Loves Wags

It’s so universal it doesn’t even need to be mentioned

[booboo]

Ah fuck

Loves byes. Loves.

What are we thinking?

Quickfire 120, set them 300 to win in say 80 overs?

[booboo]

I asked this on day one.

Does me going to bed result in a wicket (as it invariably does if the opposition are batting...

... fuck Latho dropped! ...

)

Or does it mean I miss awesome NZ batting?

I'm going to take a punt on the latter.

Good luck all.

See you on the other side.

fark, he makes it look easy. One of our all time greats

Edit: and an astonishingly poor runner for someone with as many runs as he has

I guess so. I'd have settled for batting practice. Then again, no championship points on this so why not practice trying to squeeze out a win?

Good challenge and a great no fear attitude. Cool

Unless it's just Rossco trying to bash himself into form.

I think we go hard. A test win is a test win regardless of WTC. It also gives more players a go if we lose a few wickets.

Ross just went 'ping'. Great strike

[Siam]

@nzzp that is and always will be the quintessential Taylor shot!

[Snowy]

That is also why umpires call is bullshit.

[Siam]

That Latham hoik must indicate we're setting a target...I hope

I really didn't put that well. If we use tech, we use it. Out is out. Whatever the umpire has said I don't think is as accurate as the tech.
