Black Caps v England Test series

Not sure why there aren't more close-in catchers?

[Mokey]

Damn, damn, damn. A wasted review.

Yeah, but not a terrible one. An inch of pitching, and that was plumb. Turned a lot.

There are now! Finally - well one at least

[mariner4life]

these fuckers are going to escape aren't they?

I'm having horrid flashbacks to that other fucking test vs England where we took 9 wickets and they escaped with a draw and celebrated.

[Virgil]

Think it’s time to break open the tool kit, bust out the masking tape

[akan004]

Declared too late and are paying for it now.

Wagner you fucking beauty

[Tim]

@canefan Yup. Nice spell of hostile bowling.

[canefan]

Still in the balance. 3 pieces of good cricket away

I think that's what it's going to take. Like last night, angry Boult and Wagner will be key

That was 5 years ago to the day!

Wagner you fucking beauty. Exactly the kind of player you need in a situation like this - just keeps coming at the batsmen. Wore Stokes down mentally and got the false shot.

3 wickets in the final session - she's all on.

You know how when you leave the tv room a wicket falls?

I gave up listening and checking the live score as I was getting shitted eith no wickets...

... Stokes ...

You may thank me later

Stay out all night mate

Bumble says the pitch is a good one. Undercooked Stokes looked reasonably comfy for 4 hours until he was undone by Wagner's rage. We're going to have to force them out with aggression and close fielding pressure

[Paekakboyz]

We can do this, well and truly into the tail and Boult, Wagner and timbo will be full of effort. While he bowled well I reckon CdG should have given up 5 overs or so to Astle, while we had a few more runs up our sleeve. Once Todd got into his work he looked good.

Let's go boys!!

[canefan]

How can you not admire Wagner. He is majestic at the moment

[Paekakboyz]

He's like that undersized open-side flanker who is a beautiful mix of mongrel, talent and ticker. Just. Does. Not. Quit.
