Cricket 2021: NZ in England and WTC Final

[Donsteppa]

Of all the weeks for Southee to be off his best...

[No Quarter]

Southee normally swallows those. Ugh

[canefan]

I hope we don't pay for dropping Jadeja

[Squirrel]

Maybe this is the test where Southee gets his elusive test 100. Since he's not having his usual success elsewhere

[canefan]

Get Timmee out of the attack and get Kyle in to complete his five for

[mikey07]

If anyone wants a laugh on Facebook go onto the ESPN cricinfo page the comments section has the Indian Fans having a sulk saying it’s fixed and the ICC don’t want them to win 😂

[canefan]

The new ball and Southee and Boult has been very disappointing. Coincided with India's quickest 50 runs of the innings. Let them off the hook when Wags and Kyle had them on the ropes

[Damo]

That dropped catch could be the difference. Take that and we might be batting straight after lunch. As it is, India might put on another 30-40.

[Chris B.]

Our noses probably just in front. Would have been bloody nice to hold Jadeja - not someone who should be given chances.

I'm off to bed - hopefully won't wake to find the good ship Black Caps on the rocks!

[No Quarter]

A good session but India have runs in the board, and they'll back themselves to run through us as well. Test is really in the balance still.

[Siam]

Fine session, could have been near perfect but a really important session win.

Evenly poised. But runs on the board always means something in cricket

Wish they could have a 10 minute lunch - arvo forecast not as good as the morning one.

I guess it’s up there with all the BCCI conspiracies…oh wait hang on…

Top order will have to stand up. Need serious contributions from at least 3 of the top 5. Kane needs to deliver. Rahane looked comfortable, we just need to apply ourselves

That is dead plumb

I thought so. Height? Sliding down?

looks OK

It was definitely reviewable though.

Definitely - when you're Virat Kohli.

Shane Watson, not so much....

Everything is reviewable in Shane’s eyes.

[ACT Crusader]

Just watching a replay of Rahane’s dismissal and that was baffling stuff from a guy that was playing an almost flawless innings to that point.

Wags is surely going to pop a vein in his neck this test 😉

[canefan]

Looks like Kyle is warming up. I'm glad Kane has made this move, should have done it sooner. Now get Wags in at the other end

[canefan]

Kyle with 4. Pick of the bowlers

[canefan]

5 for Kyle

[Siam]

Wish the commentators would use technology to shut the fuck up in the background

[canefan]

Such control, the sky is the limit for Kylo
