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

[Zinzan]

& I'll say it: Wright's been our best bowler.

Ind33d, which may not be the best sign for England given NZ have a few Wright-like bowlers.

 

[Dick Rockett]

Goddammit, quit pissing around, Colin Munro.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Turd of an innings from Munro.

Turd of an innings from Munro.

Yup.

 

[Howe_zat]

Looks like this will end up around 180. Would quietly fancy England to chase that, it was looking like 200+ earlier.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Bah, I find it irksome in the extreme Dernbach celebrates having a slog caught at cow corner like he's castled middle peg.

 

[Zinzan]

NZ really losing their way here.180 won't be enough against this batting line-up on this wicket.

It's T20 cricket; that's how you take 'em. He beat the bloke all ends up the ball before he would've had him caught second slip in a Test 99 times out of 100 so if you can't celebrate boundary catches then you're not going to be celebrating much.

 

[BeeGee]

Dismal batting.

Pfft. Munro picked the slower ball; even adjusted his shot. Execution was the issue.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

NZ need a couple of 20 run overs here to post something competitive.

That's how he takes them no doubt but it isn't true for actual fast bowlers that can aim at the stumps.

An edge doesn't count as a win when you've no slip to catch it. It's just not going to help.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Musta been close to waist height.

Not like McCullum's a six footer.

 

[Zinzan]

Are they really Englishmen fielding out there? I can't remember an English side quite as slick in the field. Just the 1 wide and 3 leg byes as well.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

What a dum bass.

 

[BoyBrumby]

& for good measure he doesn't celebrate bowling Elliot at all.

 

[Howe_zat]

It hit the stumps

 

[stumpski]

Haterz are gonna hate. 2-23 now. Would have settled for 180, looks like it might be under 170 now.

 

[jcas0167]

Some superb bowling by England.

 

[BeeGee]

4 off 6 balls isn't good enough, Elliot.

Dernbach bowling well.
