I fell asleep on the couch with the Test still on early in the second session. I kept having this dream that our top order were busy scoring lots of runs in the sunshine...
Quite a difference that a week makes...!
I reckon. Kane who ?
Nicholls likely to get dropped for the next test provided he’s over the vid ?
No more likely Bracewell making way for Williamson.
Mitch Jnr at 6 and Blundell at 7 are very good insurance policies to have down the order.

Looks good down to 7 doesn't it,and for the amount of overs we would give Bracewell in the 3rd test and with Bracewell batting at 7 we look weaker with the bat.
Plus I would play Wagner for Henry to add a bit of bite to the attack. -

Stead probably.

In my haste I completely forgot about him.

What was funny was fielder's reaction (Ollie Pope?) when he collected the ball.
-
@Daffy-Jaffy said in Black Caps tour of England 2022:
That is a crazy shot. Not like the spectator tried to catch the ball in the cup or anything
-
Bracewell looking confident on the front foot. Already 5 boundaries in his 22 runs. Three absolute pearlers too.
-
-
We’re not helping our cause with all these wickets falling in such quick succession. Would be nice to get up to 540-550.
-
550 up and Mitch Jnr needs 13 for a double

@Donsteppa said in Black Caps tour of England 2022:
Game has the look of being a high scoring draw at this rate.
Indeed. Whilst I’m pleased we pretty much can’t lose its bloody tough seeing a win from here !
-
@ACT-Crusader Bracewell deserves his opportunity, he’s had a sensational year and it’s great to see he’s taking his form to the highest level. Much prefer him to CDG.
-
While the latest Bracewell is making his debut, it looks like the next-generation Pringle is going to follow the Netherlands representative path instead: Cadets Facebook post, and Cricinfo: Tom Cooper to make Netherlands comeback in England ODI series. Shane Snater and Chris Pringle's son Tim both named in provisional 18-man squad
(Interestingly, Pringle played for an NZXI v Netherlands earlier this year)

Isn't there some rule that if you play for a minnow it doesn't rule you out playing for another nation? Like Chapman playing for Hong Kong (?) and then the Black Caps a short time later.
