*Official* 2022 New Zealand Tour of England, Ireland, Scotland & Netherlands

[Uppercut]

Surely 5 down with Foakes batting is too soon to be giving away runs trying to get him on strike.

They’ve taken their tactical advice from sledger

Why isn't KJ opening? Sooo dumb

Now hopefully Boult or Southee will get a brace to make me look stupid.

Kane got the message.

 

[Aritro]

I'm going for a walk. They're not bottling this, you can tell.

 

[nzfan]

Runs coming at a very good pace. Lines and lengths a bit off today from the boys.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Too easy for England.

Yeah I think so too. Everything has hot the middle of the bat so far.

Although Root isn't a bad watch. Can watch him bat all day.

 

[nzfan]

Wish Kane read it quicker there's nothing happening for the faster bowlers and gave the ball to Ajaz

 

[SteveNZ]

England going to canter this. Yes I'm trying a reverse jinx, but it's just so bloody flat

 

[nzfan]

There's a bit of rough outside leg. If we'd rather they score slower and we get to use the new ball why not use Ajaz to bowl from around the wicket?

 

[White Ball]

CDG man of the match?

 

[jcas0167]

That's fascinating about the ball change. Replacement swinging far less.

Agreed I would get him on and have him bowl outside leg stump. He should have been brought on last night once Stokes was out.

Kane is such a good player of spin he doesn't rate spinners. Sometimes you wonder if he even knows there's a proper spinner playing in the side.

 

[_Ed_]

Not the first half-hour I had hoped for.

 

[social]

Commentators are right

Changing a ball going soft & swinging made no sense as it’s hard to bat against

 

[Flametree]

Root seeing it like a beach ball currently...

 

[Days of Grace]

England are winning this 5 wickets down.

It’s come to the point where people need to call it out for the shortcoming it is.

 

[Flametree]

Was using Mitchell to just dry up runs not a possibility either? Have really missed CDG....
