*Official* 2022 New Zealand Tour of England, Ireland, Scotland & Netherlands

[SillyCowCorner1]

new zealand should bat to the end of the day to frustrate england really and pile on 600 plus and bat for records

Brian Lara, is that you?

 

[slippy888]

mitchell should be told he has the right to go for the magical 250 score

 

[Aritro]

That's a welcome wicket for the sake of this match as a spectacle. The last half an hour has been dull as dishwater.

 

[Aritro]

Double figures for Jamieson. Now double it.

 

[slippy888]

why you guys in a rush for a declaration

 

[Uppercut]

Late career Anderson has got so good at not going for runs during a failed innings of bowling. He used to have a reputation for being a liability on flat pitches and now he’s getting 3/62 off 27 in an innings of 500+ declared.

still his fault for not taking 9/62 ofc

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Shannon Gabriel would have been proud of that shot.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Fightback status: on.

 

[Aritro]

This has been a magnificent innings from Mitchell. Just flawless batting from what I've seen.

Keen to have England 5 down at stumps.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Handy having a quality spinner to bowl at number 11.

 

[trundler]

Mitchell already better at batting with the tail than Waugh

 

[Moss]

Class effort Mitchell to bat through and build a commanding score even as the tail unravelled quickly.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

10 wickets, 10 catches.

Catches win matches

 

[Gremlin]

Pressure on England. The pitch is going to seam all of a sudden isn't it!

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

10 wickets, 10 catches.

Catches win matches

Shame it took 15 catching chances.

 

[Uppercut]

Funny to think that Root will need 187 runs just to undo the damage of the easy slip catch he dropped off Mitchell.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Shame it took 15 catching chances.

You gotta lose some to gain some.

 

[trundler]

Rootie was vital to England scoring big runs on roads in SL, India (first test) and West Indies (Antigua). Funny how he doesn't have a reputation as one to cash in on flat decks at home.
