Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final

Wags is on. Cue the chin music

[canefan]

Wags playing it straight up right now. Not one bouncer yet

Wicket. Bat, pad catch. England going for a review.

[canefan]

Robinson successfully reviews his dismissal. Nowhere near the bat. Gouge is having a mare

Great session for NZ

[sparky]

Lunch 164 for 6. NZ's session.

[No Quarter]

Good session to get the upper hand. Southee absolutely superb.

Washed up, past it, too slow, too many 4 balls, doesn’t swing it any more...

[Kruse]

Okay, I've finally seen the mullet which was mentioned earlier in the thread.
Goddamn magnificent.
An atypical colour for a mullet, I was expecting to see some sort of dirty-blonde neck-protector, but... that just adds a touch of exoticity. Very well done.

And to top it off Colin is looking very likely. Two no balls at his pace is unacceptable though. England's run rate has ground to a halt

[canefan]

BJ you schmuck! Muffed a stumping chance off Mitch. It was Burns

[canefan]

Tim starting where he left off with the new ball

[canefan]

Michelle for Timmy. Well deserved

[canefan]

A bit of tit for tat. Wood clipped Devon, Southee returns fire getting Burns flush on the side of his cover just by his ear. Fire and brimstone to go with the skill swing and guile

[sparky]

Mark Wood gone for a duck. 207 for 8.

Tim and Kylo are making good use of the new ball again. As much as Burns deserves a ton for saving his team, let's spoil things by taking the last two wickets and stranding him short 😁

[Bones]

6 for 43? Not bad for an old bastard eh.

[sparky]

England all out for 275. Last stand was 52.

[sparky]

Williamson fails with the bat again. NZ 62-2 at the close with a lead of 165.

Draw looking the most likely result.
