Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final

My scar tissue is starting to itch.

"Here's Tobias: "Really wouldn't want to be Gary Stead right now. The selection dilemmas for New Zealand ahead of the WTC final are enormous. This strength of depth is definitely a good problem to have especially given how well Young, Henry and Patel have preformed in this match. I'd almost back a side that will have Jamieson at No. 7, Wagner at 8, Southee at 9, Patel at 10 and Boult at 11. A real shame for Henry because I'm sure he won't get picked." Think I'd prefer to be Stead than Chris Silverwood, though"
From Cricinfo's commentary, can't argue with that last sentence...

@no-quarter The Aegeas Bowl in Southampton has a hotel in the ground and can be turned into a self-contained COVID-bubble. Lords doesn't have a hotel and is surrounded by a busyish residential area. Totally understandable move given the COVID situation in the UK and in India.

@canefan just hoping our guys can get some similar movement when we are playing India.
I have to think we have an advantage. We've played a couple of tests already, regardless of the pitch conditions the general conditions are very similar to home. But it will come down to execution

Latham barely moves driving down the ground and it's 17 to win
I was a bit disappointed, I was hoping to get the winning runs without a boundary.
I did notice that one of the English threw at the stumps and it hit one of our bats. Didn't ricochet off to the boundary this time....
