I can't remember New Zealand being as bad in the field before. One thing you always knew was they would be tidy in the field at least. What they have shown so far in this tour has been comedy gold.

They've been very good on the ground from what I've seen. Far too many drops for some reason.

I nearly said something stupid and posted "this match has been a little short for a ODI, we're only 6 hours into it" but I had lost track of time.

And of course, the commentators just harping on about the 7 balls NZ missed out on at the end. Not the 60 odd they wasted at the start.

That McCullum drop was lolworthy - didn't even get a gloved finger on it did he?

But yeah, 20-30 runs shy of a reasonable score and England have far too many reliable top order batsmen when it comes to chasing modest scores.

So who does KP replace to get back in the side?

Can't drop Root, guy looks made for this level. Taken to it like a duck to water considering hardly anyone would have picked him in the first place.

50 for Trott - as usual, it's hard to remember one shot he's played - but he's scoring at a decent lick tbf, and doing the job.
