A NZ XI beat England in a T20 the other day. http://www.espncricinfo.com/new-zealand-v-england-2013/engine/match/569235.html Superb innings by Tom Latham to get us home.

Does NZ cricket have a father son policy or something. Rutherford, Latham, Bracewell all playing

 

[Meth]

NZ win the toss and elect to bowl. Looks a good track

 

[Meth]

Hales gone for 21, stumped off the bowling for Hira. Big wicket. 29/1 after 3.4

 

[Meth]

Trent Boult is getting smashed...I think...I've never watched a full game of T20 before, so I don't know what's normal

 

[Meth]

Ross Taylor drops a catch. Would have been a good one, but would have been a big wicket.

England looking to post 200+ here

 

[Meth]

Ross Taylor drops another one.

Awkward.

 

[Meth]

Wright hit 42 off 19. c Hira b Ellis.

I think we are in for a spanking.

Shocking hands.

 

[Meth]

We could possibly chase down 200 odd- but yeah, pretty shocking fielding. McCleneghan's drop was awful.

Good to see Taylor hold on to that one.

173/4 off 16

 

[Meth]

Eden Park is so small.

Buttler hits 16 off 3 balls

195/5 off 18

 

[Meth]

Patel goes for 2 off 3. c McCallum b Ellis.

Teams have posted 241 (SA), 221 (AUST) and 218 (IND) v England before. Can't see us doing that tonight though.
