that first hr was shocking x.x rest of the day was pretty good by England but they folded at the end :s

epic start by NZ with the bat getting to 140 odd for no loss then when i last looked they were 2 for 150 Lol.

And once again the toothless England team struggle. When Anbderson has a bad day, we dont look like taking a wicket

Need a good morning tomorro

just looked at the fixture for this England and New Zealand series... why not have a 3 test series instead of some shit dead rubber 2 tests??? are NZ only there to warm up England for Australia?? what a joke. give them a proper go.. they are there for long enough. they manage to play 2 tests in 2 weeks. why not fit a 3rd one in. the 2nd test ends on the 2nd of June. instead of waiting a week to play an ODI game on the 9th, start a test on the 6th that ends on the 10th. NOW play your ODI games on the 13th 15th 17th 19th 21th and then have a T20 match on the 23rd of June which is when the final game is scheduled anyway. a bit intense but these guys are used to it. even extend the tour by 1 or 2 days for a longer rest during the ODI gamesthere really should be a 3 test minimum for test series all around the world.

Yes all test series should be a minimum of 3 tests, 2 is totally pointless and not enough

And yes sadly, NZL are just the warm up, happens every ashes summer over here, more lack of respect by the ECB

OMG is this a fightback against the black caps.....

Knowing how the Lords pitch flattens out and becomes dead easy to bat on as the game progresses, i reckon we need a lead of about 375 at least

1, We wont declare until its way too late to force a result, we never do, Cook is way too cautious

2, The Lords pitch is flat as hell on days 4 and 5, this is becoming the norm here, 300 is easily knocked off in almost a days play
