[Cricket] 2nd Test Eng v NZ @ Headingly

[Postman Pat]

What a fantastic prediction, you're the Mystic Meg of NSC

You're new here aren't you?

We won't get to 300.

350 up. Mental. Why can't we get rid of a tail

Because we don't have a bowler who bowls well at tail enders - i.e a spinner or someone that bowls fast and straight.

That's it, pretend it was ironic. And yes i've seen the tedious scc threads with the embarrassing we're rubbish spiel.

You are right I expected us to be 1-2. Congratulations on your belief in our opening pair.

Wheel loose.

Full and straight.....not that difficult, you'd think. Appears it is though.

Strong suspicion rain will save england today, you may not need a stram

 

[Postman Pat]

Should be a good day for bowlers, we'll do well to finish with any sort of lead here.

Kiwi's don't look too keen to be out there though!

 

[BensGrandad]

In the 'good old days' once teams got down beyond no 8 it took no time usually to mop up the tail but that doesnt happen so much now as probably more emphasis is placed on getting the No 9 10 and 11 to be able to bat as opposed to somebody like Brian Statham. He just about knew how to hold a bat and take a guard and this usually took longer than his innings.

Well this is going well isn't it?

266-7

Ali follows.

Kiwi's have bowled beautifully this morning. Everything in or around off-stump. Hope our seamers are taking note. Jimmy and Broad should be chomping at the bit to have a bowl in these conditions.

 

[pasty]

Well there's one for the "what happened next" archives.

9 down

Wood c Ronchi b Craig 19

Only 32 behind, but unlikely to reach parity. But in these conditions, lets hope our seam attack can do the business and skittle them out.

Only 17 behind which is good going

 

[Postman Pat]

Good to see we are not the only team who can't clean up a tail!

Stuart 'the walking wicket' Broad 42* (27 balls) brings the score to 346-9...

About time he got some runs.
