What ae bairsow's numbers like when he has the gloves and is batting lower down the order? His recent runs have come at 5/6 and his test numbers are pretty average, is he that good when he has the gloves?

Of his 8 test centuries, 5 have come with him holding the gloves in the same game. More importantly, 7 of them have come at a batting position of 6 or 7.

Yeah 2400 runs @40 with 5 hundreds batting at 6/7 with the gloves. How is bairstow's keeping? Jos usually takes the gloves over him in white ball if memory serves, haven't seen him keep much.

England are pretty warm favourites on the NZ TAB. Is that reflective of the general thinking? I was under the impression that NZ Doom and Gloom was being perceived as premature because England suck and we should still beat them?

None of the past matters really... I do think we are a bit undercooked as for bowling is concerned. Hope we get to bat first and pile on runs.

Anderson and Broad were not part of the test squad recently so they will also be starting a bit on the undercooked side.

England's 4, 5 and 6 is exciting. That is where the game will be decided I guess.

So if I'm reading this thread right, both teams are **** and no one wants to pay to watch them play?

Sounds about right

NZ should win this but the narratives that would spin out of McCullum leading England to victory over his former nation + WTC champs on coaching debut at the very ground where NZ won the WTC would be fun. Bet Stokes' kiwi background gets invoked too for extra points.
