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

[Zinzan]

Nick Knight sounds like a clone of Nasser Hussain the way he phases things & accentuates words.

 

[BeeGee]

Ha Ha awesome! Loving the chip for 6.

 

[Zinzan]

What an over ! Suddenly going at over 10s and making the boundaries look ridiculously short.

A poor man's Nasser really

 

[Zinzan]

Straight boundaries are the place to hit. If England bowl shorter with a few bouncers, they'll win easily.

 

[Chubb]

Oh Rossco...

 

[Howe_zat]

Lumb is really quite bad.

 

[Zinzan]

New Zealand really don't bowl many slower balls these days.

That's because they're trying to bowl with intent

 

[Daemon]

this ground is so so tiny. i think.

 

[Dick Rockett]

Three things: these short boundaries are an embarassment, T20 is still brain-meltingly boring, and these sponsor's colours all over our uniforms can **** off. Could've sworn the fern used to be SILVER.

 

[Daemon]

lol, this definitely isn't boring

 

[BeeGee]

So what's with all the dropped catches?

Pathetic.

 

[Zinzan]

12th over and the first time I've seen Guptill field the ball, weird.

 

[Howe_zat]

So they're 3 wickts down in the 12th over and going at well over 10 an over for the innings, and WASP predicts that they'll slow down and get less than 10 an over for the rest. It is, it seems, useless.

Completely useless. I wish they'd stop talking about it.

 

[Mike5181]

This is such terrible cricket.

 

[Howe_zat]

Looks like if England defend this it'll be just by holding their catches

 

[Days of Grace]

No surprise. NZ are always so, so **** in the first match of a tour. They'll get bowled out for under 100.

Ellis is ****. McCullum is so **** at captaincy it's not funny anymore.

270 on here.

 

[TT Boy]

That's a great four overs from McClenaghan considering.

Looked the part in the Republic as well.

Will definitely end up England's highest total in 20/20s.
