Cricket: NZ vs England

Stink that the toss decision is so one sided on a rainy day. Everyone leaves the toss knowing the winner is already in the box seat, due to the chasing calculations in Duckworth Lewis.
I don't know a better solution though
Most boundaries ?

Do you know the numbers on that? Could only find 50 over matches and a (possibly dodgy) report - nothing for T20.
The conclusion was that the side winning the toss was most likely to win (66%) but team batting first also won 64%.

This is fascinating.
In my mind we have got away with murder with some of the wide calls
Did you see the first innings?

Ross Taylor could have cost us this match with his bad running.

No. Just describing what I watched

The umpire was generous but consistent with the new interpretations

Bit reminiscent of the CWC Final.
We had the foot on the throat several times in regulation and let them back in. Pretty disappointing.
Santner had a great series with the ball - player of the series for us.
Conversely, his spin partner Ish was disappointing - mainly got smoked.
Think we missed Ferguson in the last two games. Might have been the man for the super over.
Unless there's strong evidence that the pitch is going to turn, I hope they seriously consider playing Ferguson in the tests and not playing a spinner.
