England vs New Zealand - Spoilers

[psmiffy]

If we run out of overs can we still get an extra 30 minutes?

Nope - Last hour 15 overs left

Nope - Last hour 15 overs left

We won't need it anyway. If we can't get this last wicket in 15 overs then New Zealand deserve the draw.

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Come on England, the household is getting hungry and I ain't cooking the tea until this is over.

It's all a bit edgy!

 

[psmiffy]

Broad - Kiwis 220 all out - - England win - a remarkable win in the context of the beginning of England's first innings

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Tea Time

You f***ing beauty. Great match

 

[Dayvo]

Well-played England. A deserved victory. Stokes man of the match, presumably.

 

[yello]

A cracking game. I think the kiwis will be slightly disappointed for letting the game get away from them but credit to England - they did the necessary.

Hopefully the 2nd test will be equally finely contested.

I keep expecting to wake up!

 

[Dayvo]

I keep expecting to wake up!

You will when the other Australasians turn up.

Boycott was my man of the match - for his constructive support of the team.

He is a horse's arse. Even when he's shown to be completely wrong he can't bring himself to show any humility.

 

[rich p]

By the way, I hope you all noticed that I never lost the faith.

I just hope that @Dayvo has a big enough appetite for that huge slice of humble pie he's eating!!!!

 

[rich p]

Yes, and I'm sure @Dayvo will be along in a moment to say it was the Middlesex connection wot won it

Strauss's first game as head honcho, Tuffers and Ed Smith on TMS, inspiring venue of Lords...
...need I go on!

 

[Dayvo]

And still the likes of Finn, Robson, and Compton are just waiting to get the nod from Oberführer Strauß or should that be Strau

?
