England Vs NZ 1st Test.
« on: May 17, 2008, 09:34:02 AM »
Evenly poised after 2 days play. Which way do people think it will go? Personally I think it will be a draw, but with the strength of Englands attack you never know.

strauss and cook are going very nicely indeed but with the weather forecast not looking promising, i don't think england have enough time to bowl out nz again. lucky escape for new zealand as they look pretty bad and if they win a test i'd be very surprised!

Day three delayed by 30 minutes players know coming out onto the field.

I Think Its Heading Towards A Draw.
Possibility Of An England Win.

yeah but the way we are going we would have to start so early it would be a couple of days before but seriously it would be too dark to start early but cant think of anything else you could do, heard something about putting roofs on stadiums but personal i think its stupid you wouldnt get dry pitchs for spinners of overcast conditions for seamers

you could put rooves on some stadiums but the pitch would pose problems. Or the solution over here is using drop-ins. but they suck
