**Official** New Zealand in England

[99*]

Taylor gone, barring some miracle that's it for the tests. ONward to the 20/20 (meh) and the 5-0 black-wash of the ODI's.

back to the cricket the euro's opening ceremony is painful

Heh @ Boycott ripping Taylor to shreds on TMS.

Going off at the ICL bannings as well, which is spot on, IMO.

McCullum should've been out according to the radio, which would make my prediction of him getting less than 10 not look as ordinary.

Yeah, looked like it hit the back of the bat, so didnt show up on the hot spot thingee. Only the pad brusing the inside edge.

 

[Goughy]

Very interesting. Ive not been able to see too much of this series but the long term issue of Panasar leaning his head back looks less pronounced.

If he has made the change them good on him.

Should hopefully be getting cut less now. Has it been reduced over the past Test or 2?

As we watch the New Zealand top order batting collapse yet again, one can't help thinking back. Thinking back to a better time.. a better player.. a better man.

If only he was still available (and hadn't failed repeatedly over the past six years).

 

[Nate]

Flynn to make a 100 iirc.

I am pleased with the way the match is going. I want England to win it, which they look like doing, but I didn't want them to win it today, since I have a ticket for tomorrow. So I should be at the ground as England win the series.

I am about 2 miles away from Trent Bridge and the light is closing in, probably won't bowl all of the scheduled overs today.

I was there.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

****!

 

[pasag]

I was there.

You?

 

[Prince EWS]

You?

!!

Can confirm that shot is from the game in question, too.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

You?

Nope. I think that's Heath.

 

[TT Boy]

Heh @ Boycott ripping Taylor to shreds on TMS.

Yeah, his been on top form this afternoon…

Aggers – “New Zealand are in trouble (Taylor just been dismissed)”
Boycott – “Because they can’t bat”
Aggers – “Here comes Daniel Flynn”
Boycott – “His one of them”

 

[TT Boy]

Flynn gone.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Have to feel a wee bit gutted for Flynn. Deserved a half-century but basically choked at the death; chased a very wide one he could quite easily have left alone.

Anyway, at least it looks like NZ will be spared the ignominy of an innings defeat.

 

[GIMH]

With Oram and Vettori both still to bat, (well, I know Oram is already out there) I don't reckon we'll get an innings victory, think we'll need about 20 or 30, so expecting a three wicket victory

 

[Isolator]

gutted...Flynn...Deserved....choked...death

Yeah!

chased a very wide one he could quite easily have left alone.

Ah, the ironing is delicious. But yeah, he did okay. How failed though, which basically makes me hate Flynn more...

A day spent in the alcohol-free stand. Pictures to follow.

Looked a full-house today
