*Official* New Zealand in England 2015

[Goughy]

England favourites now.. The target is going to be around 250 - 260

Madness. They are 102-4. A bad 5 mins and they are massively in the ****.

Well batted Skip!

 

[GIMH]

Since Jono jumped on the anti-Cook bandwagon he's been scoring for fun.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Nice one skipper.

Jono must be so happy with that.

 

[morgieb]

Excellent innings from Cook. For his own side's sake he needs to get a bit of a move-on though.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Top innings by the boring unlikeable ****.

If NZ are unable to bowl England out I doubt Cook would declare with anything less than a lead of 320 or so. Wonder if there'll be enough time to force a result by the time that sort of a lead us reached.

 

[Spark]

Fair play, that's a really, really quality knock

 

[ajdude]

wouldn't have minded seeing him bring it up. at least FX are being decent blokes and going through Breaking Bad

 

[GIMH]

Not out

 

[BeeGee]

Good knock under pressure.

 

[Moss]

Top effort against a testing attack. Well played captain.

 

[Spikey]

I was expecting to see Cook bring up his ton and instead got jose mourinho

 

[morgieb]

Missing off-stump was a bit surprising.

 

[Moss]

Interesting little period of play here just before the new ball with Stokes looking to seize the moment.

 

[Stace]

Superb from Cook especially as he's had to get through 2 difficult spells (last night and this morning), I know Root was scoring quicker but Cook didn't give them as many chances.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Another good session for England. Slowly creeping to parity.

Well done Cook.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

This rain could be set in. If it is this is a draw.

Well played Chef.

 

[harsh.ag]

Root's dismissal was quite Kanesque, must be said. Quality though, and what a player.

 

[marc71178]

If Stokes manages to bang on a quick 50 plus here, he will have had a mighty game and would give England an outside chance at a win tomorrow

Apart from the bowling part you mean?

 

[harsh.ag]

Had two catches dropped though.
