At this rate NZC might give us Bob Carter with all his learnings from coaching the White Ferns...
Saw Fitzy's in the stand - give him a slot for a lunch-time pep talk.

Atrocious fucking batting - all 4 batsmen have gone out playing with hard hands at the ball & playing away from their bodies... amazed we chose to bat when their wickets are well known for seaming around a lot, we probably chose to bat first to give Boult more time to recover, well that really bit us in the arse big time.
Except for Williamson he played with soft hands on a tight line but he got done by the Lords slope. .

They're certainly playing like world test chumps.

Five in the slip cordon, or four slips and a bat pad this morning certainly screams BMac in the coaching box...
when you have a team 4 down for stuff all they were always going to stack the slips & really put the squeeze on.

His hands weren't soft enough though & didn't get in line with the ball properly.

Yeah they were that’s why the ball died he got done by the slope which made in carry more than it usually does ,on another ground it wouldn’t have carried the rest were soft dismissals they played with hard hands and to late to a pitched up swinging ball.
Really they should have known better they have played enough in England to have a plan to combat the seaming ball.
They need a big kick in the arse. -

That’s embarrassing Blundel you leave the ball to a predominate in swing bowler.
That’s poor Potts is a front on open stance bowler it’s mostly coming in.Was a shocker by Blundell, you can't afford to leave ball when it's threatening the stumps.

Has Baz had an immediate impact?
Maybe? We batted erratically at best throughout the home summer, and shithouse in the second warmup game. England look fired up and aggressive, but I guess they're also back home, in the sun at Lords, after being beaten up in Oz and in the Caribbean.
I'd rather have their coach than ours I guess..
