Black Caps v England Test series

[mimic]

England now with a 100 run lead with the loss of 1 wicket.. looking like a draw is the best we can hope for

[rotated]

Not a good look that session, almost as bad as Izzy’s rug during the Dilmah Tea Party.

Advanced hair, yeah yeah? Photos?

Always intrigued by what people will glue to their heads.

[Duluth]

I thought it was a highly engineered, complex comb forward. Doubt it will hold together during a rugby game

[No Quarter]

I saw an ad with Shane Warne and Mark Nicholas saying how important it was for balding men to go to Advanced Hair, which was all the convincing I needed to never go anywhere near that company and instead just fully embrace hair loss later in life.

[Siam]

Shit we look impotent. Eng 1 for 174 effectively

[No Quarter]

Double breakthrough. We need to roll them cheap now to have any chance at all.

I wonder how many sessions we will need to bat to save the game?

[Siam]

@canefan Best part of 4 minimum is my gloomy prediction

At least Warnie is a Bona fide cricket great. Nicholas is nothing short of a Grade A wankstain.

We will have to bat for a day and a half to save this test. On this pitch, that should be very doable.

I don't give us much chance of a draw or win.

[Chris B.]

@hydro11 Should be a pretty interesting final day.

England has to win to draw the series so they may have to give us carrot to chase.

Some of it depends on whether we can knock a few of them over tomorrow morning and with the new ball to stop them accelerating their run rate.

I'm guessing they'll hope to leave us around 400 in a bit more than four sessions. That's probably too many to win, but on this pitch we should be able to bat four sessions to save it - if the pitch doesn't start to play tricks. Stoneman and Vince weren't in much trouble most of the time.

[MN5]

Hard to see our top order shitting itself so badly two times in a row. I'm extremely confident we can hold on to win the series.

This team is far better than the shit one's of yesteryear.

CDG gets stokes straight after lunch.
Bairstow nicked the cover off one very next over but fucking umpire doesn’t give it.
We obviously wasted our reviews already.
That was the opening we needed, bloody umpire!!!!!!!

[Mokey]

Two quick wickets after lunch, Stokes and Broad back in the hut. England 7 down now, lead 341 - maybe a flurry until tea then declare and unleash Anderson and Broad etc at us with a new ball?
