*Official* England in NZ 2023

[Daemon]

Clarke's Australia actually declared and lost by an innings in India in the 2013 tour

India declared at 36 in the first innings then went on to win the series

You just wait until we come to India

KW player of the match, what a pile of junk that is.

 

[Gnske]

Can't deny that Bazball is making its mark on Cricket statistics and useless factoids.

They shouldn't stop, nor is this evidence that they should. Anyone with a pulse knows that watching an Australian team try to figure out how to handle this approach in the midst of an Ashes series is going to be comedy gold.

We can't forget who the real hero here is: Macewell. Without him NZ would've won this by 100+. With him we get one of the greatest tests of all time.

 

[Jezroy]

What do you do with Wagner now? Let him retire on the win or keep playing when he's clearly past his best?

I would give him the SL series if he wants it now.

 

[Athlai]

I would give him the SL series if he wants it now.

Would be a very useful series to try out new bowlers

Surely this test is the end of that experiment? Just get Ravindra if you want someone to bowl filler trash and a batter that at least is overhyped.

I'm sure this has come up but I'm rarely here anymore.

Proper anti-English decision at the end that non-wide call. British Empire history lessons continue to lose England games in all sports. Andy Duffrene: “whatever mistakes I’ve paid with them”…

Well said

Yeah hopefully can get Archer & Wood back for The Ashes and rotate them across 5 tests

That's the sickening part of this defeat,all we are gonna hear from that Indian troll is you lost after following on. That will be hard to shake off until The Ashes come around.

Troll number 2

Wrong
@Burgey would be insulted to be ranked 2. He's the undisputed ATG

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Yeah not many in recent times I'd think. England lost at Adelaide in 06/07 iirc, and Aus scraped a tie vs India going way back to 86 (they actually declared twice in that game, which pretty much led to TOTAB only ever declaring at customs from then on).

15th time it’s happened, and the last time was also at the Basin in 2017 when Bangladesh got 595/8.

Yeah how many sides have lost after declaring in the first innings? Can't be that many.

So much for "you need 20 wickets to win a Test".

I'm sure this has come up but I'm rarely here anymore.

Get Ajaz Patel in the side as the primary spinner and give Young a good go ahead of Nicholls. Get someone like Ben Sears for Wagner. Keep Nathan Smith and Ravindra in the wings.

Ajaz is a way better spinner than Ish Sodhi.

Give it a rest

 

[Starfighter]

India declared at 36

Let it go. Retired hurt = team innings completed.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

So much for "you need 20 wickets to win a Test".

I said when this NZ team was named it wasn’t a bowling attack that could take 20 wickets, and I stand by that.
