***Official*** England in New Zealand series 2013

[straw man]

This is so, so good.

This is so, so good.

Very much enjoying this. Been a great series for NZ. Competed well.

 

[Binkley]

This is so, so good.

Three boundaries off three balls by Fulton to reach his top score in test cricket. Great stuff Peter.

 

[BeeGee]

I see his top score is only 75. I'm sure he'd love to better that today.

Highest score. Double it, etc.

 

[straw man]

Missed those three boundaries from Fulton. 83* - wow. I like that he's putting pressure on Panesar when England need Panesar to bowl a lot of overs.

 

[straw man]

Apparently last over was the first time Panesar had bowled to Williamson this innings - Panesar's 75th ball

Shows that although we're going well there are still not a huge number of singles, especially from Fulton.

Fulton's average at the start of the day: 23.05
Current average: 27.94

Suicide watch for the English bowlers if Fulton reaches his century.

 

[Zinzan]

Missed the last couple of hours, great to see us still only one down.

Stating the obvious, but Fulton's looking an entirely different batsman now the pitch has flattened out and the ball is 50+ overs old after looking all at sea early doors.

Looking like one of the great tosses to lose this!

94/0 from the session

 

[BeeGee]

Top work NZ! Awesome stuff.

Fulton isn't the reverse Guptill, he's the right handed McIntosh. Tall, little foot movement, vulnerable to playing around his pad, looks increasingly solid when fortunate enough to survive past the first hour...the resemblance is uncanny.

Incredible! I went to a shared lunch at work just over an hour ago, thinking I'd come back to a minimum or three or four down. Stoked.

 

[Pothas]

Well that was a fairly painful session.

 

[sphynx]

And this bowling attack is going to rip through Australia in the Ashes?

Clarke will eat this attack.

 

[James]

Incredible! I went to a shared lunch at work just over an hour ago, thinking I'd come back to a minimum or three or four down. Stoked.

You and me both - this is awesome!

Come on Fulton! Bring on that hundred!

Enjoying the posts from the sole English supporter that's bothered to stay up to watch this

Fair, though he's reached 45 a whopping 3 times out of 4 this series - something McIntosh could only dream of.

Random that Fulton is one of only two players in the NZ team to have played a Test at Eden Park before. McCullum the other.
