Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final

[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.

[sparky]

Some swing for the NZ bowlers, but not looking consistently dangerous. This Indian batting lineup will be a step up from bowling at England's. Very good start for India.

Or a day for Wags

[Damo]

Jamieson could equally be the man.

Some of his spells last summer were incredible.

[No Quarter]

Not that I would have picked him but Henry wouldn't half mind these conditions.

[canefan]

Might need a bowling change. Southee lacking consistency in his first spell

[Donsteppa]

India going at four an over with Timmy's erratic line and length.

His history of pie chucking should have him no where near a full strength test team.

[No Quarter]

Disappointing start from our two most experienced bowlers.

No need to panic though, the ball will continue to do enough for a long period of time. But we'll need Jamieson and Wags to hold their nerve a bit better.

[kev]

Timmy has beaten the bat quite a bit. Just a matter of time. Wickets will come in clumps.

[booboo]

Ok.

I'm off to bed.

I'll repeat in case the ether did not register...

I'm off to bed...!!!

Was hoping the Fern wouldn't have to play one of our Trump cards so early but good call

[Siam]

@booboo sleep well mate. We got this😁

[Donsteppa]

Yay! Change of bowler AND booboo is off to bed. Wicket time looming?

[Siam]

Novice first over from Jameson. Save that 1st innie for later, not 2nd ball.
