Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final

[Chris B.]

Well, we've had better preparation than India and have won the toss, so we can't have too many excuses - apart from the weather.

Happy with the team - on paper it's a strong batting line-up and we've got guys who can hold a bat in the tail.

We don't have a spinner - sobeit!

My money is on first wicket being bowled Southee caught Taylor.

Some good movement, I’m sure he’ll find his line sooner rather than later…

[booboo]

@gunner last ball of the over not bad.

Ball 3 5 & 6 ok

[booboo]

Never really taken that much interest in Duke v Kookaburra, but this ball is very dark in colour. Is that normal?

No idea sorry.

Better 2nd over from Timmy, settling into it.

[No Quarter]

Looking likely but we desperately need early wickets

[Donsteppa]

Might be time to go to first and second change early while the ball is still new. These two are getting swing, but not a consistent enough line.

[No Quarter]

Excellent start from India, our guys have bowled some wicket balls but not nearly consistent enough.

[Donsteppa]

Could be a good day for golden arm Colin.
