*Official* New Zealand in England 2021

[trundler]

Call him Ross Sailor because he's looking all at sea.

 

[Moss]

Hope Taylor finds the middle of the bat soon. England will see this as an opportunity to stall the momentum and possibly throw Young off his game in the process.

 

[trundler]

Young is looking more and more solid. Needs to cash in. Come on lad.

Yeah was hoping we could be really ruthless here. No spinner for England so a big long innings would put a lot of pressure on them

 

[Aritro]

I seem to remember Kiwi folk being very excited about Will Young when he was in the U/19s. Surprised it's taken him til he's 28 to get a test debut.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Taylor is in danger of losing his place in the final to Young if he keeps playing like this ...

 

[Aritro]

He's looking a bit tubby isn't he?

 

[Moss]

Thought that Young-Conway partnership would mean Taylor would have an easier time of it coming out later in the day, ha ha. Hang in there Ross.

This absolutely should happen if he keeps batting like this. Walking wicket otherwise.

Was always regarded as a prospect but didn't really put up the big scores at domestic level until ~3-4 years ago. I think he was considered a possibility to take over McCullum's no.5 spot in the test side when Baz retired in 2016 but Nicholls overtook him and the others just then.

 

[Arachnodouche]

That's outrageous from Broad, holy crap.

 

[hendrix]

Yeah Broad and Anderson bowling throwback spells right now. Need to get through these

 

[Aritro]

If Taylor's current physique is any sort of reliable indicator of pie paucity, it's safe to venture that there is not a single pie left.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Great stuff Young, love to see it!!

 

[Moss]

Nice innings from Young, not faultless but quite Pujara-esque in how he's batted in a bubble. Needs Ross to now get the scoreboard moving somehow so he can continue doing his thing.

Retraction: Olly Stone seems intent on feeding him a few more.

 

[Moss]

Worth a review I think, didn't look plumb.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

That’s a howler. Way too leg side even in real time.

 

[trundler]

Dodgy decision. Didn't look out at all

 

[Moss]

Well played Will Young for getting Taylor to ask for the referral!
