Outside chance NZ 2nd innings starts on Day 1 Another summer , another England batting collapse. Its almost comforting to know that nothing changes over time.

Inverurie Ram Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I always find the highlights quite comforting, knowing that I was better off, playing football with the kids, watching a swimming lesson, weeding, cutting the grass, hoovering and washing the pots and enjoying the sunshine instead of wasting a day in front of a TV watching England collapse once again.

Comrade 86 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Kiwi middle-order might be taking this game away from England. Maybe the pitch is not such a horror story after all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrade 86 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Here we go again! Bowlers undermined by hoplessly ill-functioning top order.You'd think at least two of Root, bairstow and the skipper need biggish scores if we're to have a chance. The England tail looks a long one to my eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The England tail looks a long one to my eye. Our batsmen play a few nice shots and then the first trap that’s set for them gets them out. No one is prepared to graft and get themselves in so they earn the right to play the big shots later. We have batsmen who get a nice twenty or thirty then get out. I keep hearing what a great player Crawley is, Lees is, Pope is, but until they can string some scores together I’m not convinced. And Stokes was like someone playing his first net after a long winter. He is lucky De Grandhomme overstepped. I hope he and Root are still there at stumps. If they’re not, we’re doomed.

Wolfie20 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 If Root goes early in the morning I think that'll seal a win for NZ - the England tail under pressure is dreadful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 You'd think surely with 5 in hand England won't ruin it from here getting the 61 they need. Then you remember. Still just about about in the balance, but 20 runs or 1 wicket in the first five overs will probably let us know how it's gonna go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Going along nicely at the moment. Expected the ball to do a bit this morning what with the overhead conditions, but it's doing absolutely nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
