*Official* New Zealand in England 2021

[BoyBrumby]

4,000 for Latham, T.

Played young man. We'd kill for an opener of his class.

A win here should cement Latham as Williamson’s successor when/if Kane gives up the captaincy. In both the tests he’s captained thus far, had to work with a second choice bowling lineup and done well on the whole.

 

[Days of Grace]

Tommy Latham to have a net here and deny the crowd getting their money back.

So would NZ for about a decade prior to Latham appearing.

Who did you kill

 

[Athlai]

When was the last time you saw the Marshall twins.

Nuff said.

Who did you kill

Jesse Ryder. The current iteration is actually David Bain in a fat suit.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

And to think Papps was battling away in first class cricket all that time. #travesty

 

[Athlai]

PowerPapps

 

[Athlai]

Will Young trying to get these people a refund. Come on Ross let's block this out for 5 overs

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Rossco deserves to hit the winning runs here!

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Shame for Young.

Taylor might not be back in England in 12 months so I hope he hits the winning runs.

Absolute low point for me was Rob Nicol selected to open against Steyn and Philander

You are a true fan haha...I'd blocked that memory out

 

[Athlai]

Nicol? Pfft I'm pretty sure Peter Ingram actually played a Test and I'm fairly certain that was from Phlegm hype alone.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Yes boi

 

[hendrix]

Hindsight is 20:20 but it's kinda unbelievable that NZ were bookies underdogs for both tests

 

[Moss]

Rossco deserves to hit the winning runs here!

Ah well. Latham deserves it no less.

4 tours to England for Taylor, was pretty much the only decent specialist bat back in 2008 (Redmond, Marshall, How, Flynn etc...yeesh). Must be enormously satisfying to finally be part of a victorious touring party!

 

[Days of Grace]

Awesome series win. I remember staying up throughout the night in 1999 and while that was very memorable this feels different. This just felt like what was expected from this team. We’ve come a long way in 22 years.

 

[StephenZA]

Well done NZ. Impressive 2 Tests from them.
