are England still in it with a chance for the WTC then?
NZ bounce is pretty awkward and Carse has tapped fully into it, he has been the difference between the bowling of both sides.I thought this was one of the weakest bowling attacks to come to NZ but they've had no problem taking 40 wickets on good batting pitches.
The loss before the unlikely follow on win. Worst loss in terms of margin in a while, but even then we managed 300 in the first dig.Well done England.
Have to say I'm struggling to remember a more feeble performance from us on home soil in recent times. A nightmarish few days to watch.
It's a new ball deck. Ball was jagging around pretty nastily during the first 20 overs, but it settled down after that.Scoreboard pressure is a wild thing. This did not look like a 250 all out deck today.
Yes, he's been superb.NZ bounce is pretty awkward and Carse has tapped fully into it, he has been the difference between the bowling of both sides.
I missed the first session because NZ tests start at 3 AM PST so it's looked like smooth sailing batting wise any time I've tuned inIt's a new ball deck. Ball was jagging around pretty nastily during the first 20 overs, but it settled down after that.
Please tell me Blundell is also playingLatham basically confirmed Southee will play next week.
is this a quote or a joke?"No changes for the 3rd test. We are backing the boys to fight back. We feel the group is doing nothing wrong and are just losing a few small battles here and there . That partnership showed that when we threw some punches, they were under pressure for a while. This is a strong group and we've played a lot of good cricket. Everything is looking good in the nets and think we'll keep fighting hard and push them in Hamilton."
Was always going to play every test in his swansong series regardless of form, let's be honest about it.Latham basically confirmed Southee will play next week.
Joke, but might be realityis this a quote or a joke?
What happened to sharing the Basin photos you took Heath?Where do Henry and Southee get off, batting like this? Pair of wankers. Shows the fans utter contempt. Furthermore, I think NZ has fallen into the trap of trying to play England’s game and not their own natural style. And they’ve done themselves a disservice by doing so.
Spot on.It would be nice if this instigated changes to the team, but we've thought the same after basically every poor performance in recent times so I expect a few oh wells and that's just how it goes and the same team will roll out next week.
I shared a few on day 1. The upload was pretty slow from the ground and then the phone would lock in uploading and the like. I'll see what I can manage from here. I think the other issue is that I got a new phone sometime this year and the base file sizes must be larger. Pictures from my phone were between 5-7MB and from my wife's about 2-3MB. I think last year I managed to share some without many issues at all. Ah, technology.What happened to sharing the Basin photos you took Heath?
