**Official** England in New Zealand 28 Nov-18 Dec 2024 - 3 Tests

This is rabbit in the headlights stuff. Much like the new Aussie opener vs Bumrah.

 

[grecian]

Clever stuff from England, putting a bloke in that has no chance to get a bat to these balls, that a better bat may edge.

McSweeney can bat and was in form

This is very different

I don’t have the channel that is showing this in the U.K. , so following alerts, cricinfo and FlashScores app. Costs too much with all the other sport channels that are behind a pay wall

I despair at times with how this current England management and selections play out. Hunches, hopes and pure luck if they find a decent player

crawley is simply a player who may score a decent total every five innings or so . Seems such a waste his constant selection when fit

 

[grecian]

Ben Duckett leaving balls, it's just not right. Still love him though, we must be looking at records foe guy scoring all the runs for team by now.

 

[_Ed_]

Duckett's started strongly in his quest for a Bannerman.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

And this is really powder puff stuff from Southee. Give the young guys a chance to see what they can do here.

 

[ataraxia]

Oh dear Latham.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

Oh ffs.... Slip chances are never easy. But that was about as regulation as it gets.

 

[King Kane]

That could be a costly drop from Latham.

 

[hendrix]

**** me Tom. that wasn't a hard catch.

 

[Moss]

Henry must be feeling quite let down by that. Bowled a top first spell.

 

[_Ed_]

I don't know if I've ever had less faith in our slip cordon in all my time supporting NZ.

 

[Burgey]

Cox was supposed to win his first Test cap on Thursday as a stand-in for regular wicketkeeper Jamie Smith, who is on paternity leave, but fractured his thumb in a net session on Sunday.

This is a ****ing plague and a pox on world cricket atm

 

[CartyDurham]

Apparently this is the first time Bethell has batted three in first class cricket

hit his wrist area that drop . Bad misjudgement

google cricstream I don't wanna give the link here. And def install an ad blocker

 

[smellcricketintheair]

Latham keeping in place of Blundell next match doesn't look appetizing after that drop..

 

[BazBall21]

Duckett is a very good starter.

 

[Bahnz]

Let it not be forgotten that amidst the jubilation of the India series win that we still dropped a bunch of dollies in that series.
