We are now getting destroyed.
Pope is some fielder in close, but still. FFS.
Indeed. The follow on looks a million miles away and really, what are the odds of Blundell getting any sort of decent score twice in a row ?
This is some depressing shit.
Looks like FIVE consecutive losses to the same side that got fucked up the arse by Australia barely a year ago.

Into the all rounders now. Southee is due some runs and Henry has been in excellent form for NZ lately.
A first innings lead now would take some doing but be good to get within say 50-100.
Wow, I’m glad you’re not a selector. I think they’re firmly classed as “bowlers who can bat a bit sometimes”
Henry has got two fifties in his last six innings……but he’s also got three ducks in that period too.

Don't be such a negative nelly. At 27 this is the biggest partnership of the innings. Good things to come.

I’m just waiting for the usual suspects to come on here and have a go at Southee for not batting responsibly.

You can't please everybody.
3 nicely taken singles in this over. Turning the strike over in sensible fashion.

That’s exactly how good all rounders bat

The only surprise in a game going totally to script is, how on earth is it not raining in Wellington?
It's not going to my script!
England's first innings wasn't far off expectation - though at 21/3 I hoped we might deviate from expectations.
But, we had stacked the batting and on paper it looks a powerful line-up - a deeply disappointing effort.
edit: Bracewell at 8 for this test is about the quality you'd expect.in that position. England has Broad.

Last throw of the dice is Mr. Southee. After watching his 77* on debut I'd never have thought he'd play Test cricket for this long without scoring a Test Century. Thus, he is due tomorrow along with the in-form Blundell to bat us to a first innings lead.

From memory he got that score in a losing cause against England at home too.
Completely agree, Harbhajan Singh has TWO test tons for fucks sake !
