Swann out of the series with a recurring elbow injury.

Injury, injury, injury, injury, injury! It's the injury that keeps recurring, not the elbow!

Bell's dismissal is up there as one of the most stupid wickets I've ever seen.

Colin - which days you going to for the Ashes? Know where you're sat?

fri,sat in the b stand lower
There a are still some available for this stand too as i'm thinking of doing the thurs.

I'm there Thurs and Sun.

If you do go, give us a shout and we'll meet for a beer. Pretty sure I owe you a couple.

Have say Bell pisses me of warm up game he gets ton plus come the important game he makes mistakes he wouldn't make in a none game!

Re: ***New Zealand v England 1st test ***

Another start we didnt want, mind you the pitch is dead.

I think we need a rain dance already

Re: ***New Zealand v England 1st test ***

New Zealand will now collapse like........er....England.

Can only hope for a draw now
Unless we get the next 9 wickets for less than 150 & hope they don't top 320
Even then we would need a good 500+ next time round to have a chance of a win.
Heres hoping:)

Best we can hope for is a draw in my opinion. But I have a feeling we'll receive a "humbling" innings defeat.

Your right they dont
I just always think of that headingley test every time I hear them both
In fact I think I'd rather watch a rerun of that the way this match is going :)

Re: ***New Zealand v England 1st test ***

Was kinda expecting NZ to crumble for 290 odd and Eng to be 130-2 or something at stumps, but Rutherford put the kabosh on that...just hoping the weather holds...

Re: ***New Zealand v England 1st test ***

Have to bat well to save this test but we are capable of that

We just have to bat for a day and a half on an absolute road of a pitch. NZ have managed to do it so there's no reason we shouldn't, I assume this has been enough to shock them out of 'holiday' mode.

Re: ***New Zealand v England 1st test ***

Mccullum is playing superbly

Think they'll let McCullum get his ton then declare. Another 2 or 3 overs should do it...<br /><br />-- Fri Mar 08, 2013 10:26 pm --<br /><br />

Re: ***New Zealand v England 1st test ***

They are going to have to knuckle down to save this
Cant really lose more than 3 wickets today when we get into bat.
