*Official** New Zealand in England

[Tom Halsey]

Jones out. Great innings. Sharp catch.

 

[Neil Pickup]

I reckon we ought to declare now. NZ are clearly not going to force this issue!

 

[tooextracool]

Well Batted Geraint!

Out of interest: Do NZ actually have a single working bowler (fit and in decent form)?

apparently styris is their most fit and inform strike bowler

 

[Neil Pickup]

Fleming appears to be going off the field..

Loony BoB, get yourself down to Trent Bridge for Thursday.

 

[tooextracool]

Ton up Jones, I always said he should come in for Read!

absolutely......oh wait that was me!

[NEW ZEALAND AMITS MODE ON] Yes, they have Fleming, Richardson...[/NEW ZEALAND AMITS MODE]

Last three wicket fallen for 0 for both of the first innings.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Yeah I noticed that.

I also noticed that Hoggard finally played an attcking shot.

In this squad ? nope

Mills most likely will get a shot the next game.. and i have a feeling they will bring in butler if hes already in england (he could even be on a plane right now)
What about mason ? we aint seen any of him this tour.. and i thought hes there..

I think...

Tuffy -> Out (Form, Injury)
Martin -> Out (Form, Injury)
Veto -> Out (Injury)
Oram -> Out (Injury)
Paps -> Out (Injury)
Styris -> Out (Form, Maybe Injury?)

LOL thats alot of people out with injury...

Close enough to declaration... just lose your last two for none

But then they picked up the last 2 for nothing!

 

[Neil Pickup]

3 actually.

I posted it after Jones fell... so last two!

 

[PY]

#1 hefty blow from Harmison. This could get nasty.

Oh dear, broken hand #13.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Harmo bashes Fleming on the hand..

Broken?

 

[Tom Halsey]

Arm, you ginger twit.

It may be.

 

[PY]

If he's listening to radio then he would think it's the hand.

And I'll take Simon Mann's word over a 15-year-old truant.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Blame TMS.

Broken?

It brought a huge welt up - poor over though. Never got another one near him.
