Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final
-
Fair play to the Barmy Army for making a lot of noise for their team even in these circumstances.
-
Latham just 6 runs away from 4000 test runs according to the cricinfo commentary.
-
Joe Root would be playing for the draw in these circumstances.

Surely not even the BCs can fuck it up from here?
Outdated stereotype. We’re a world class team now.
Hard to forget the old memories. There's a lot of scar tissue there. These boys are doing a lot to heal the wounds of all those ill fated English tours
-
Conway pushes at one. Caught behind. 6-1. 32 runs needed for NZ. 9 wickets needed by England.
-
That's a shame for Devon. He'll be disappointed but he's done the hard work. Time for the others to finish this off
-
Aw fuck, was hoping for a 10 wicket win.
-
My scar tissue is starting to itch.
-
28 to get
-
NZ 15-1. 23 more needed.
-
All of the non playing squad have dressed in their whites. Looking the part when making history
-
We have never won at Edgbaston apparently. I'd rather we go out in style than with a whimper
-
Latham has got his 4000th Test run.
-
21 to get. Young takes one in the cods
-
"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...
-
Broad has it moving big time
-
@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.
-
Latham barely moves driving down the ground and it's 17 to win
-
@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
-
A quick scan of the Internet suggests it will swing at Southampton. And our bowlers love the Duke ball
-
27 for 1.

I was a bit disappointed, I was hoping to get the winning runs without a boundary.
-
10 to win now. We are about to have the deficit down to single figures
-
I remember when we thought hitting out of the ground was worth 12...
-
5 to win. 31/1.

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....
-
Young drags one on off Stone. Two down.
-
Young played far too away from his body. Cue Rosco to be out in the middle on a famous day
-
Latham hits a 4. Scores tied. One to win.
-
Latham gets us to match point
-
Scores tied, quick someone do a boundary count.

Will there be a Super Over?

They came to Fortress Edgbaston yesterday and made it look like a bouncy castle..
love an extended bouncy castle metaphor.
-
Awesome boys!
-
Latham hits it for 4. Punches the air. Ilford 2nd XI win the series.
-
Out for less than 200 and win at a canter? Reverse jinx!
-
What a shellacking
-
A nice little not out for Latham and that will fucking do lads. What a team.
-
fuck yeah!! Great job lads. Cannot wait till the team for India is named... although I admit I am nervous about what Stead might cook up!
