Chris f**king Woakes getting wickets and England favourites to win. The same week that NSW wins a decider. Strange, strange times.

At least Guptill tried to create a run rate. I’m not sure what Nicholls thinks he’s achieving at this point.

One positive for NZ... the ball is moving for the English bowlers...

You’d think that with Boults fuller length he will be able to cause issues...

No doubt. But neither will give you a great chance of winning the final.

Nicholls is a #5, our out and out weakness is opening bat

You’re right, we just have no one better apart from maybe Latham who’d be pretty similar.

Nicholls is a good nugget. Certainly a better option than Munro. Probably more a four than an opener but all runs are valuable in a WC final.

Plus if he strikes at 65 but allows De BigMan and Santner decent opportunity to go hard at the end surely that's a plus?

Santner couldn't hit the skin off a rice pudding
