*Official* New Zealand in England 2021

[Moss]

Good start though Conway was loose on the couple of occasions Anderson went very full and got it to swing.

Ollie Ollie Ollie x 2

 

[straw man]

Is the pitch mic weird for everyone else? Sounds like Latham is batting with a plank. My hands vibrate in empathetic pain just listening to it.

yes, even the shots off the middle sound hollow
unsatisfying, fix it someone pls

 

[_Ed_]

No I meant he's a miserable looking git

Comes with the territory of being England captain.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

The only nerves Conway feels are for how ***ually attractive he finds Kane

Don't come out onto the balcony Kane ...

Yep sounds like he's cracked Dennis Lillee's aluminium bat out of the gearbag.

Looking forward to Robinson. Spoke a good game, can he back it up?

 

[harsh.ag]

Ollie Robinson giving Bresnan vibes

 

[Athlai]

I look forward to Ollie Robinsons future career installing insulation but he's not up to much out here

 

[nzfan]

Robinson is another 80 mph bowler. Going by his pre game statements I thought he's the new Brett Lee. Like that attitude though.

 

[Athlai]

This is a man born to drive a van

 

[Bahnz]

Conway defending veeeeery wide of his stumps there. No need for that.

 

[Moss]

Can see the basis for Fraser comparisons re Robinson, though I think peak Angus may have been quicker

 

[wpdavid]

NZ looking very comfortable now. As befits the world's number 1 side, but I would like to see more threat from England.

Some balls carrying all right, some collected under the knee. Will definitely tell us if Santner can deliver bowling last. Not sure why England didn't play Leach.

Actually no 2 (but we go back to no1 ahead of the final if we win this series).

NZ openers look good

You are mistaken. We are number 1 after this series. Currently India is 1 point ahead of us

Don't worry - I'm confident Wagner will deliver bowling last

 

[hendrix]

Latham has got stuck a bit. Sometimes happens to him and then he has a concentration lapse

 

[social]

No spinner for England is a sorry indictment of how poor their stocks are

Never a green top
