Is Santler a reference or in-joke I'm not getting? Because it's Santner ffs.

Deep breaths.

Knock by the young fella.

Someone please get Henry bowling full again!

 

[African Monkey]

And has a magnificent grunt.

all we need now is for him to get some wickets for him to get his usual figures of around 3-85.

 

[Skyliner]

Wheeler refusing to get caught in the carnage that has been created in part by 2 mythical bowlers who are getting worse at international level as they get more experience.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

yeah guize we shud bwl yorkerzzz!!!

meanwhile short deliveries get the last two wickets

 

[Zinzan]

I get the feeling Wood is going to make this wicket looks a little different.

 

[we're yorkshire]

Loving the new England, need a better bowling attack though. Willey isn't great with the ball, Wood can be expensive, and so can Finn.
What does Mark Footitt have to do to get a game? Hes the best bowler on the county circuit and England won't even look at him.
Any reason the kiwis aren't looking at Jeetan Patel? Hes been the best spinner in county cricket for the last few years and is handy with the bat

Reminds me of Michael Holding.

You know the line: Not afraid to attack and be aggressive, selflessly going for plenty but picking up 3 vital wickets for his skipper.

He's crap at intl. And not available for selection now.

Wish they showed that strike rate graphic RE: lengths with either Botham or Holding in the box at the time.

Noone gets tail enders in overs 48-50 like Mitch.

Could be a third seam option in the test team.

He was offered a spot in the side last June, but turned it down to focus on county cricket. Since then the NZ selectors seem to have decided that he's not worth pursuing, which is perfectly fair tbh.

 

[CaptainGrumpy]

He likes his left arm around wicket to left hander bat.

Well done Wheeler

 

[wellAlbidarned]

great knock from stokes but he completely lost his shape towards the end. Wild heaves.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well we will need to bowl well today to win this.

Won't get anywhere near 350 now.

He's got a waaaaaaaaay better ODI record the NcCullum. Not that that's saying anything mind.

Yes usually caught at third man in and around overs 45-50. Has great energy though.
