[Cricket] Cricket- New Zealand v England Test Series- November 27-December 13 2024

[Eeyore]

Bethell looked on borrowed time from the start. He has the air of a number 7 or 8. I'll stick me neck out and say this is a peculiar selection for number 3

To be fair to him, all of England's batters have looked on borrowed time so far.

Fair point, well made. Duckett heading to 50, looking like getting out every ball

 

[Change at Barnham]

If you’re just waking up, it could have been a lot worse.
After a dodgy start Brook and Pope dug us out of a dee hole.
After Pope was dismissed to a stunning catch, Brook and Stokes are building another partnership.
England 296/5 trailing by 52 runs.

 

[Man of Harveys]

Dropped catches, excellent batting. Entertaining stuff.

To be fair he has never made a a first class hundred and has never batted at 3 before. So he was on a hiding to nothing.

Got to feel for pope. Brook was dropped a clanger by Phillips and then 3 other times. Pope gets caught by Phillips for an absolute worldie.

Unbelievable catch
