England tour of New Zealand- 5 T20's and 2 Tests- November 2019

[Bazal]

I read an article this morning that quoted Stuart Broad saying England were looking to bat only once in the game and roll NZ cheap in the second innings so you'd assume they're looking at at 550-570 at a minimum?

Pitch looks to be a road so it might be attainable goal

Only Australian pitches are roads, mate...

I think they're scoring a bit too slowly to go too much higher than that. At this rate, they might finish the day at about 300? Nothing to lose, I suppose, so maybe they declare tomorrow on about 550, if they get there- but I think they'll probably need 550+ to be any chance at all.

100 and run out?

 

[Meth]

wow that took an agonizingly long time

 

[Bazal]

White bails on white stumps.

That's even more village than running yourself out on 100

 

[jargan83]

Run outs are a capital offence in Test Cricket

Great 100 from Burns, ably assisted by Ross Taylor and Matt Henry.

I was thinking the same thing.

White bails, on white stumps when all the players are wearing white as well.

Well done idiots.

 

[JJ]

Raval did something good!?!?

 

[Bazal]

Mark Richardson is oblivious to how dumb he is, isn't he?

 

[jargan83]

And they've brought out a set of different coloured bails

 

[JJ]

Yellow bails now lol

Yep, but too smart for Warnie

Can't resist, can you JJ-Bash?

Warnie keeps bringing up his 99, not me

Richardson chirped and Warne had a brain fart

 

[Meth]

Richardson is a provocateur.

 

[JJ]

Finally Root stepping up

not surprised if a big ton today

How long does your curse take??

Root looking really good atm

 

[Bazal]

Richardson is a provocateur.

That's an interesting way to spell pelican

 

[Meth]

That's an interesting way to spell pelican

he is that too

 

[Bazal]

he is that too

I half hope he does nick off to K-Mart and get some zing bails.

That whole train wreck with his co-commentators just acid-tongueing him was good fun. Wish some of ours would do the same to Warnie more often
