**Official** Super 8 Group 1 Discussion - Eng, WI, SL and NZ

[Hurricane]

Oh well - it was an entertaining game.

 

[straw man]

bowling Nicol in this situation?

 

[_Ed_]

This is getting a bit ugly now. Full credit to these batsmen, but it hasn't been our best day with the ball.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Genuinely can't remember the last time Eng and NZ met in any format before this game. 2008 summer?

 

[Cabinet96]

NZ could do with another front line bowler.



Oh wait...

2010 World T20 and 2009 Champions trophy were the last two meetings I think.

My only explanation is that Taylor got his sums wrong and only had 4 left from Mills, Southee and Vettori.

 

[Hurricane]

Strangely Milne would have been bowled.

 

[straw man]

nice catch by the specialist fielder

 

[Cabinet96]

That's why Bracewell is playing!

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Nice catch! Can't keep Doug away from the game forever.

 

[_Ed_]

Nice catch! Too little too late, but it adds some respectability. And Mills deserved that.

 

[Bahnz]

Ah, so that's why Bracewell was selected.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Please not Bairstow. Please not Bairstow. Please not Bairstow.

Butler's on a hiding to nothing here. Best he can do is 10 not out. Worst he can do is get out cheaply..

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Get England back to a run a ball needed. Bowl a ****ing wide next ball... Amatuer.

Or the bat, tbh.

Oh well. Go Sri Lanka!!

But, unlike Kieswetter, everyone likes him so he can do no wrong.

NZ should just run through the stumps every delivery. Then the match will never finish.
