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

[nzfan]

Was looking forward to seeing Mitchell and Blundell to get to hundreds and build the lead to over 300 but this test match has been up and down all the while. Yet another twist.

Not happy 3 wickets fell but the rest match is going to be a nail biter I think. Hope it is a nail biter.

Blackcaps are determined to make the 10pm TV viewing session for NZers **** each night.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

New Zealanders should go to bed soon and wake up to a 120 run victory.

It's the hope that gets you as an England supporter. Even if we take the last three wickets in a hurry, Southee and Boult are going to move the ball miles in these conditions.

 

[Skyliner]

Far out, apart from a couple of blokes the batting is an absolute shambles.
How can Mullet look at himself in the mirror after letting the team down like that?
Two guys busting their guts & the others having a nice holiday in England, including the B Grade coaching group.

 

[GIMH]

Still feels like we’ve got too much work to do but certainly makes it more interesting

Tim "I'm gonna play my shots" Southee

 

[Flem274*]

Mitchell good
Colin dumb
Broad obnoxious
Game chaotic

 

[straw man]

That's plumb :/

 

[thierry henry]

Honestly how is CDG so singularly talented with the bat, so seemingly canny with the ball, and seemingly such an aggressively dumb bloke all at the same time

 

[wpdavid]

Tim "I'm gonna play my shots" Southee

Not the worst idea, although he may have waited until Blundell reaches his hundred.

EDIT
Ah, scrub that.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

That looks plumb af

 

[Meridio]

Ah that looks out...

 

[Moss]

For now NZ just need to eek out runs but if one more wicket goes then time to counter attack

Looks like Blundell's plumb now, just as well Southee decided to play shots I suppose.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

What a nightmare. Two 90s for Blundell in 2022.

 

[Flem274*]

Blundells second 90 recently. Rip.

 

[thierry henry]

So if we lose because we lost our last 6 wickets for 10 runs, that will be quite bad

 

[White Ball]

Time for Southee to play down shots still think NZ have enough but another 20 or so would probably keep them as heavy favourites

 

[Meridio]

Unlucky. Excellent innings. Nipped in a bit, that's the way he tends to get out but wouldn't really say he did much wrong there.

Shithouse morning this

 

[straw man]

That new ball huh. NZ would like to have time for a decent burst with the second new ball themselves if England bat well - throwing the bat for another 20-30 runs here would really help with that.
