    Need to get through this partnership. Anyone got any good reserves jinxes or more bad takes to help the Craps out?

    Think we've used up the biggest table turner in the much-berated Bracewell running out their star batter without facing a ball, but there must be other options for us to try.

      Bracewell taken out of the attack. I don't love it - if he doesn't come back from the other end, I think it's a weak move. There is turn and bounce; you have to attack.

      I thought Southee would be more aggressive ...

      Too many 17 run overs and we are out of the game

          I know that - but the ball is turning and bouncing. Surely a second over is worth a crack ... if they are agrressive, it creates chances.

              England's last 3 average 40 between them - hopefully they're no better than that today given their age.

              Not sure whether I'd rather now get Root (their best bat) or Stokes (their talisman).

                    @nzzp Yeah, I know - but, Stokes just finds a fucking way to win.

                    Both worry me - I'll take either and preferably both! 🙂

                        Next hour settles this match. Either we get these two or they're close enough to the target that it's over as a contest.

                          Based on run rates per bowler, the captain has to bowl himself into the ground at one end, while swapping the other three at the other end.

                            We just don't quite have enough runs to play with. That collapse is costing us the game - the dodgy Kane caught behind and then the Bracewell moment.

                                    I guess if Kane doesn't bowl today, he's likely never bowling again at the top level.

                                          It was probably out, but at the same time snicko is not super reliable. There were bars before the ball got to the bat, and only slightly higher bars when it went past. On field decision was not out, and they felt that the faint bars from snicko were enough to overturn that decision, which I wasn't convinced with.
