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

[slippy888]

Feels like Bairstow is looking to get out. This inning has been a hack with some really good shots

england want this done before any rain comes

 

[nzfan]

Anthony wasn't that good

Fair call looking at it now

 

[chris.hinton]

I cant believe how bad NZ are

Bairstow is looking like a prime Pietersen. He done very little at test level prior to this and NZ are scared off him

 

[slippy888]

bracewell is a average cricketer why they continue to pick him

 

[trundler]

Fair call looking at it now

I just assumed you meant that one time Razzaq thrashed him.

 

[Spark]

Bairstow has had a good series obviously, but clearly it would have been better for the team if he had batted slower. By batting so quickly he's obviously hurt England's chances of winning the series.

(if you know, you know)

One of the worst spinners i've seen at this level. NZ era of dominance is over and they should look for change of coach

Stealing a ton off Root. Selfish Yorkie prick

 

[Bahnz]

Genuinely interested to see if England keep playing like this when confronted with a more muscular bowling attack next week.

 

[slippy888]

New Zealand just seem to blame Ayjaz after the 1st test match defeat and refused to pick him

India will roll these lot over

 

[slippy888]

Why they still bowling bracewell surely you dont want to finish him off

 

[ImpatientLime]

damn gotta feel a little for bracewell here. totally out of his depth but being asked to bowl at a rampaging bairstow. KW playing the long game and giving further credence to his disdain for spinners in SENA with this king move

 

[91Jmay]

Bracewell just looks like a really good part timer doesn't he. Gets it to turn and bounce a decent amount but also too much filth at times

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Why has Mitchell hardly bowled in this series? We've had injured bowlers in the 1st 2 tests and went in a bowler short in this one, yet he's hardly bowled at all.

 

[chris.hinton]

India will roll these lot over

Not a chance. We will beat India with ease

 

[Jarquis]

If Barstow overtakes Root do we criticise Root for robb8ng him of the ton?

 

[Howsie]

Picking Bracewell as a bowler (hell if he was picked as a batsman) you deserve to lose your job on the spot.

Honestly this is embarrassing at this point.

 

[slippy888]

Bracewell confidence going to be wrecked when he returns to 1st class cricket

 

[nzfan]

Why they still bowling bracewell surely you dont want to finish him off

Kane wants the game to be done with asap. Still hoping Bairstow gets out to him... looking for whatever small pleasures we can get out of this
