**Official** England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

[Dick Rockett]

Seriously how many TV commentators are there? Because sumo is back again for crying out loud

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

New Eng strategy. Keep bowling pies to Santner and hope he swings so hard he puts his back out and can't bowl em out later.

 

[Skyliner]

Sumo having a massive sook about how hard done by poor Tim Southee is. “He’s been given this valedictory series” etc.

 

[Nintendo]

Is santner an alpha now?

 

[King Kane]

Time for Southee to hit some sixes.

 

[SteveNZ]

Please declare.

 

[Darwin Award]

Welcome back Joe Root... 6,4,4,6.... Wicket. LOL

 

[cricman]

If Root gets to 100 test wickets or 150. He'd be in the running for GOAT all rounder too?

 

[ataraxia]

Time to bring Carse on.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

I can't remember anyone ever getting 2 guards of honour before... at this point I wonder if they're all taking the p1ss

 

[PlayerComparisons]

If Root gets to 100 test wickets or 150. He'd be in the running for GOAT all rounder too?

Maybe if Sobers, Imran, Kallis, Hadlee, Miller, and Botham didn’t exist

 

[SteveNZ]

Haha **** me. This is the greatest ceremony awarded to a player in forever. 18 months of selectorial grace, two guard of honours, and the opportunity to bat one more time despite being 647 runs ahead.

Is santner an alpha now?

always was

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

BMac ordered them to give him two lollipops.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

This is now surely in the top 10 highest targets ever set to win in a non-timeless Test. Will have to dig up that list.

 

[SteveNZ]

Jeepers Sumo. The crowd is there to see us win, this is a Test match

 

[Nintendo]

Why does southee not simply hit 2 sixes. He has already hit 98 before. Is he stupid?

 

[Skyliner]

Sumo is going to have a fit or an orgasm before this innings is out. He’s almost delirious with excitement when Southee is in strike.

 

[ashley bach]

Blundell 44*(55)

Haha **** me. This is the greatest ceremony awarded to a player in forever. 18 months of selectorial grace, two guard of honours, and the opportunity to bat one more time despite being 647 runs ahead.

Oh yeah and I almost forgot, an end of the ground named after him
