Listening to it aws

That was peeerfect setting up, so good to watch. Nothing any batsman could do about that.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Jimmy on board again. Should have a lead on first innings now. Been a very good morning by England.

 

[BeeGee]

NZ has a long tail. I hope Southee's been working on his batting as much as he has his fielding.

Nope.

please play well nz

No such luck.

Congrats to Anderson.

 

[wpdavid]

Nah, it really doesn't. If they wanted some to play the support role Martin would be in.

Good call. tbf trying to take Finn apart wasn't the worst judgement ever. Maybe he should have taken a breather after taking 12 off the over though.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Does Wagner know how to Southee? It's just a matter if time for tailenders against this sort of stuff

 

[Flem274*]

bucko for not a ton

and yeah wagner can boom it.

 

[Hurricane]

I would be tempted to bat Wagner at 8. Him Southee and Bartin have roughly the same FC average but Wagner looks the more determined. Southee really should be 10. Especially after that knock.

Jimmy makes my tummy feel funny

Hold on for the explosive diarrhoea.

Not really, Finn is a good limited overs bowler and a very average Test bowler.

He'll serve up some short and wide gash every over, just wait for it and respect the random good deliveries.

 

[Flem274*]

could have sworn he hit that live

 

[BoyBrumby]

Looks as if he enjoys a legside shovel or three, the boy Wagner.

 

[Maximas]

Wagner looks solid, soft hands and he plays straight, I think he can hang around a bit and support BJ

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Looks like only Southee gets given the earn to right.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Wagner looks solid, soft hands and he plays straight, I think he can hang around a bit and support BJ

Yep, soft hands to support BJ.

 

[NUFAN]

Southee's batting is the most over-criticised thing on CW for mine. He's the perfect #9 and he's rarely been given the chance to bat above that.

Peter Siddle is.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Yep, soft hands to support BJ.

Heh.

Surprised Watling's designated handle doesn't attract more punnage, tbh.

Especially when he takes on a Root.

 

[MW1304]

Finn's last two overs have been way better: straighter, fuller and extracting le bounce. Doesn't make up for the previous 12 overs of ****e but still.

Edit: Haha wahey! Was still wide as **** that though.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Heh.

A Root or two.
