Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final

[ACT Crusader]

CdG too short and a bit wide-ish.

[ACT Crusader]

The bounce seems a bit variable for a first days play.

[Donsteppa]

I thought we could put ourselves in trouble with a bad session with the bat. I didn't expect it at all in a session with the ball - especially after winning the toss in these conditions.

Wags is the hero we need.

Rohit is some player. He just spanked that.

Don't want to be a broken record, but this is a step up and then some from bowling at England's batsmen.

[canefan]

Sharma confused by CDGs flowing locks.

yes, absolutely - but we bowled much better at them too.

CDG bowling really well. Two short balls to the boundary - but has really threatened the outside edge of these very very good players. I can see why they picked him

[No Quarter]

Man there's swing, seam and some variable bounce. And India are 53/0. That's really disappointing.

[Donsteppa]

A desperate and terrible review.

[Donsteppa]

Colin's mullet must have got in the way of his eyes there...

Yeah. Win the toss, bowl first on a track hooping around... 53/0.

Not to be fatalistic about these things but you almost may as well shut the gate on an NZ win soon.

[Donsteppa]

Wags warming up.

I didn't think it did that much early on.

Colin's getting a bit of swing....and we've got Rohit!!!

It's getting that way pretty quickly. Their seamers will be licking their lips as the amount of movement out there. We can't afford them to get away as batting won't be easy.

[Donsteppa]

YUSS!! Jamieson with the breakthrough and Sharma gooone.

[canefan]

Got him

I agree. Basically all over bar the shouting now. The next 4 days and 2.5 sessions are looking grim.
