Feck's sake. Jimmy was doing so well there til that last ball.

 

[superkingdave]

Pretty piss poor stuff from us so far, but hey what were we expecting?

we'd have about 6 runs on the board if we were batting, a couple of runs down to third man, possibly a wicket down as well

 

[Sw1fty]

McCullum gone, poor shot there from McCullum, gets himself in with a good start and then blows it.

 

[Natman20]

and mcCullum goes afetr a good start again

 

[superkingdave]

woohoo, was 50/50 whether Vaughan dropped that though..he's dropped sitters before.

 

[Goughy]

Anyone else get nervous when Vaughan is underneath even the easiest of catches

1 down

 

[BoyBrumby]

McCullum gives it away! Didn't get to the pitch of it, the ball didn't really do anything tho.

 

[Sw1fty]

Another six, this time from Astle

 

[marc71178]

Lewis really showing he's a one trick pony again...

 

[Sw1fty]

Fleming gone, bowled by Anderson

 

[meatspx]

NZ and England at the crossroads.

If NZ loose more wickets then they will struggle to get to 220, & with Franklin in their side England should chase that down.

 

[superkingdave]

Tremlett in for Lewis for friday imo

 

[superkingdave]

Vaughan takes another catch...wonders never cease

happy for Jimmy

 

[BoyBrumby]

Vaughan failing to drop another, despite his best efforts. Ugly heave from Taylor, but nice to see Jimmy coming back into something like form.

 

[MoxPearl]

We deserve to lose for putting such a **** lineup on...

our batting is so thin its stupid... and with franklin in the team.. that makes sure there will be 100000 runs from his 10 overs..

Atleast astle kinda looks good at the mo

 

[Scaly piscine]

Whoa, the kiwi fans are almost as cynical as us English.

 

[MoxPearl]

lol i dont think u will find anyone on this forum who wants franklin in the team ?

 

[jadeey]

Franklin just weakens both our batting and our bowling. He shouldn't be there.

I think Ryder should be in and CANNOT understand why he's been ignored. How does Bracewell not see that we need to strengthen our batting order? (Don't anyone answer that - I already know why he can't see it)

 

[James90]

lol i dont think u will find anyone on this forum who wants franklin in the team ?

I'm sure the poms do

Can`t believe Tremlett isn`t playing for England. Can not see him doing remotely worse than the current crop, if not spectacularly better.
