*Official* Second Test (Lord's, London) 28 June–2 July

This is extra infuriating as a black caps fan and having this side beat us repeatedly in recent times.
I hope it doesn't sound like sore grapes but injuries (CDG, Jamieson), non-selections (Boult and possibly Patel), and weird selections (Macewell in England, Kuggleijn!!, and probably Tickner) also played a part.
 

Jfry

U19 Debutant
He hits the pull shot naturally from low to high and he seemed to be actually fighting himself to not do it, and so got in some horrible positions against the short ball.
Also doesn't seem to have a back foot capable of moving

International Regular
Chris is sitting in the corner of his room rocking backwards and forwards whispering "England's day to dominate...England's day to dominate" over and over again.

Mind you, he didn't say whether it was bat or ball, so if we're 50/5 in 15 overs time, he's still right.
Did you even see the poms bowling so far? Broad and Anderson are toothless, this is the series they will get the chop.

U19 Vice-Captain
Jeez, that was awful.

Showed how wasteful England were last night throwing wickets away against tired bowlers in benign conditions.

This morning there's been a bit of spice in the pitch and the bowlers were rested.

Well bowled 'Straya

International Captain
Be sad if Lyon is out as could this be his last time in a series in England?

doesn’t deserve to go out like that , deserves a hero reception
