The ridiculous India result has really confused things because we are still really ****ing diabolical. Still good players, playing largely like arseholes.

Don't think so. During the India series a graphic flashed up with the catching percentages for the different teams in the current WTC, and if I recall correctly NZ were 5th. I suspect we might have slid down a rank or two after today.

don't really see Stokes not declaring after 40 overs tomorrow

All 4 test series in 2024 for NZ resulted in clean sweep. If they don't pull England back tomm, they are looking at another clean sweep.

they're horrible against spin but atleast Stokes is pretty capable against pace.

Great day as an English fan.
Bowling tactics were bizarre early on then Crawley looked all at sea. Bethel looks out of his depth on first view but hopefully that was nerves and we were in the soup at lunch.
Brook was magnificent bar about half an hour either side of tea when he lost the plot completely getting dropped and having about 10 play and misses.
Pope is having a good game. I have often criticised him but he kept well being thrown in as a part timer and batted brilliantly once he got past his usual 20 ball jitters at the start. Probably the best catch I have ever seen live got him out to deny him what looked like being a ton. Good to see Stokes dig in and play properly.
Our day by a long way but NZ will kick themselves, dropped some pretty easy catches and lost the momentum in the process. Long way back if we get a decent lead. New ball is vital.

I reckon with the india series where we were so certain we were going to get destroyed that it broke us out of a lot of our shitty patterns. Now that we're back in our comfort zone it's all coming back.
?? Will get my popcorn for the highlights.
