Can't put out a team full of van Potgieters.Can't believe with several zillion counties they turn out that lot.

Good start for McClenaghan and Davis - both going at eight per over already! Davis gets Key out but not sure where was caught.Are both teams trying to lose?
I mean, we have McClennaghan, Davis, Plunkett, Mahmood and Wright bowling for a start.
Who next?
How is Te Ahu Davis going?Oh brilliant. England are getting so badly dicked that they've had to bring Ben Scott into the batting order.
According to the spiel on the New Zealand Cricket website, Scott was only supposed to provide backup in the event of an injury to Steven Davies. Absolute gold. England A getting a lesson from a bowling attack of chumps (excl. Hiini)
Good to see Stefan (sic.) Moore doing well though. Always thought he was a useful player.
England A batting currently failing to stand up to fast and probably (obviously I'm not there) inaccurate bowling of Davis and McClenaghan - from 114/3 to 124/6...TBF the batting of England A is decent. Denly, Key, Patel, Trott, Moore, Morgan and Davies are all bonafide selections (would only add Horton to the mix) but for the bowling only Davies deserves to be there. Certainly the inclusion of Tremlett and Kabir Ali would make the bowling a tad better, Bresnan, while still nowhere good enough would be many times better than Luke Wright in there. There are also options who would (with these selectors read should) probably be chosen before these guys if a test place was up for grabs (Hoggard, Keedy instead of Batty, Possibly Shreck) but are probably deemed to old for a Lions tour.
I've said this many times but Sajid Mahmood shouldn't even make the Lancashire side (and the same can probably be said about Plunkett at Durham.
6-1-33-2how is te ahu davis going?
2/33 off 6.How is Te Ahu Davis going?
Get him into the NZ team because he bowls fast2/33 off 6.
Well, SR Allen is the keeper, so at least Patel was caught behind.Yeah, but both caught. I wonder where the catches were taken.
Well Patel was caught by Allen...and Allen is the keeper, so i'm guessing he was caught behind.Yeah, but both caught. I wonder where the catches were taken.
