*Official* New Zealand in England 2021

Excellent batting by Conway. Looked at ease all the way to the century. Best thing about today's play.

 

[Moss]

Bloody brilliant, getting that hundred with a boundary. Fantastic effort Conway, had doubts about him having to front up against this attack but it’s been a remarkably composed knock. Held the innings together while the rest of the batsmen have looked rusty.

Joins Ganguly, Strauss et al as the latest member of the century on debut at Lord’s club.

Amazing stuff.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Never doubt King Conway!

 

[thedarkmullet]

Great to see Conway ton up here. Such a well covered NZ batting line up at the moment. If one big gun fails others can and do fire.

Santner and Jameson at 8 and 9 bodes well for quick runs later on too.

This Conway chap's pretty good, isn't he? (Why didn't the Kiwis here tell us about him before?)


Well played Devon, hope this is the start of a special Test career.

 

[MW1304]

Honestly would have picked stone over wood, he doesn't have the exact same

Wasn't able to play international cricket for nz till middle of last year.

Is he another one that escaped the South Africa system then?

Could put together an incredible what-if team for them.

was a prodigy and was given chances but didn’t take them.
Should have gone to England though.

 

[Moss]

Conway’s utterly dominated the partnership too. Nicholls’ share 20 out of 84 now.

Just tuned in, god i love conway....what a player

And I think with his introduction to the test setup, it might just finnnnallly be entertaining enough to watch us bat (for me) ! We could potentially score at a clip of 3.5 or even more with him around!

Nicholls doing what I was doing just an hour ago. Half awake and just existing. Taking my very very sweet and boring time to get going.

 

[trundler]

Missed almost the entire second session. Conway's glorious flick to bring up the ton was the first thing I saw on tuning back in and I believe this is what is known as a ****ing down. Has anyone checked in on nzfan?

 

[Jack1]

Don't like this attack from England. Should be picking a spinner (Leach) to give variety. Will be surprised if Root takes any wickets in England with his spin. This innings from Conway is ominous, could be a double ton

 

[trundler]

Shades of Graeme Pollock in Conway's minimalist approach

This aged well.

There's such a contrast in styles between these two lefties. Conway is fun to watch and Nicholls makes me want to douse my eyes in bleach.

 

[Alex0paul]

Where’s Tom Blundell?

Where’s Tom Blundell?

Replaced by conway.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

You're way behind the over rate, you've just had drinks, Bracey clearly knew it wasn't out, so why appeal and send it to the third umpire?

 

[Nintendo]

I knew conway was good from what some of ya'll were saying about him, but it's like he's gone to another level entirely since debuting, making runs for fun in every format.

 

[thundaboult]

Nicholls doin the tuk tuk as usual. Another tuk tuk master in Watling up next. In for a real snoozer next few sessions lads. But goddamn do I appreciate it. Pile on the runs here boys.
