***Official*** New Zealand in England series 2013

[Jarquis]

We want Duggeh.

Chur.

Edit : eek

Edit : and fine

 

[Prince EWS]

That's what I mean though.

If he was setting himself up to protect his stumps from the inswinger he wouldn't have had time to react to the outswinger.

I dunno, it's just a theory.

I've never actually faced a bowler who could legitimately swing it both ways.

He didn't pre-meditate it either way; he tried to play it from the bowler's hand. The two card trick is effective like that because it messes with the footwork and general technique of the batsman; not because they put their bat in the wrong spot in expectation of the ball swinging the other way.

We want Duggeh.

well this is awkward

 

[Bahnz]

Poor review, that's going over. Actually it's missing off. Shocker.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Far out that wasn't even close. No sign of swing for doug either, seam position is all over the show.

 

[Prince EWS]

We want Duggeh.

"We" evidently referring to you and Alastair Cook.

 

[grecian]

Poor review that.

Trott stands well out of his crease doesn't he, I'd Mankad him myself.

 

[MW1304]

Think Ashwin or someone or other warned him about that in the winter? Would have thought he's learned.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Being a bit trigger happy on these wides.

 

[Bahnz]

After a rocky start Bracewell is bowling really nicely now.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Doug looking a different bowler against Trott. He seems to have some issues getting shape into lefties, though for all I know it's a plan. We've seen him manage it before.

 

[GIMH]

Love me a good Cook/Trott partnership

 

[BoyBrumby]

Bugger.

That was unexpected.

 

[Bahnz]

Another nothing ball gets a wicket. How does he keep doing it?

 

[GIMH]

****

 

[Flametree]

Yes,....

My impression is that Wagner should only ever bowl in the last ten minutes before lunch and tea breaks - seems to lure Trott in particular into indiscretions in those periods...

 

[GIMH]

Aw no

 

[Flametree]

Wow....

Did not see this coming

 

[wellAlbidarned]

WAGnerrrrr

Bracewellllllllll

England have been really quite swish-happy outside off since Southee came off tbh, it's been odd batting at times

 

[BoyBrumby]

FFS.

Blaming Corrin for this.
