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

[Athlai]

Im gonna wake up to better news

 

[Athlai]

Good test though. Love how often we are getting these matches where teams are both on top throughout.

 

[straw man]

Balance? Sounds hilarious given he bowled 2 overs. It is very peculiar why he played if if they weren't going to give him a chance.

This is far from the first time there's been an apparent mismatch between the selectors and Kane's usage of a spin bowler.

 

[trundler]

Man what a classic test match. What a match winning knock from the world's best batsman.

Wow England have their first true great in 50 years.

stokes trying to force bairstow 16 (15) like it's this teams quiney 9 (12)

 

[Adders]

Roooot, lets be honest now.....who here wouldn't shag him?

 

[social]

KW is another Root when it comes to captaincy

Good guys New Zealand giving England's McCullum era and the Queen the celebration they wanted.

God Save Your Gracious Queen

And Her Nonce Son

My boi Foakes batted so well too.

Let it be known I've been advocating for him since he debuted.

 

[ashley bach]

For kiwi supporters this was a great game to follow, you couldn't lose.
Either we won or Brendon kicks off with a good start.
Everyone loves Brendon right?

is joe root the world's tallest small man?
he looks like he's about 5'4 when you see close ups of his face but turns out he's actually 6ft

Me, he seems kinda useless in the sack.

Hick only retired in 2008.

 

[kevinw]

I know it looks a comfortable win but had NZ scored another 50 we'd have been in Headingley 3019 territory and I couldn't imagine England doing that. Heck if Stokes hadn't been reprieved this would've been over sooner.

 

[trundler]

What's the status on @veganbob

 

[ashley bach]

Athers referencing the WC final in his first question to Kane. Twisting the knife.

LOL what a bloody cheek.
Kane should have replied ''which world cup final".... ah yes that one where there was no result.

No he’s just tall. He’s equal with everyone else for being exactly as tall as he is.

 

[hazsa19]

England caught well too, which is actually new. It must help the slip cordon having Foakes a proper keeper in there. Hope he can make the spot his own for a while.

Edit- handsome bloke too

Oh

Gotta love the hustle and bustle a good test brings to this place.
