Na pal i can't write for toffee shame you got a tad personal but thats ok looking forward to a good day no matter what.

Words drunk and delusional for supporting my side against a side who have not feared all that well against us over the years oh well.

You take it personal i rate New Zealand just don't think your world beaters as should be feared like we did and do in ODI..

The way most people talk about English Cricket is no negative read the posts of the forum maybe not from you pal but many expect us to be rolled and patted on the back.

Call me a believer i look forward to today and the tests win or lose.

(PS i think my contributions over the years makes you GerrySA a bit daft, forum for debates, i do not think England are world beaters either pal)

That was a joke about you being drunk mate, I assume you were writing quickly or on a phone.

Your previous posts on this topic were very negative towards NZ who have done extremely well over the last 12-24 months where as England have been the opposite. It capped it off for me when you basically said NZ and Australia will be cannon fodder for the mighty England. We know we are not world beaters but a bit of respect, which you have now shown was needed in your earlier posts.

Scoring 400 here will be a huge mental milestone for England and NZ.

389 all out.

I am going to say this is just about par only.

Still the next hour will be interesting.

Interesting. 4-34 at the beginning of the innings and 4-35 at the end of the innings.

Na I was on aphens but my writing is never going to be that good !!!
Pal it's ok all I said was I expect us to beat you that's all I didn't say you where a bad side I said we have nothing to fear. Indeed you have been very good for quite a while in all forms think your last series defeat was against us 2-0 I could be wrong.

No I'm no Gerry I don't think we have become world beaters but looking at our recent home record it is decent and decent against New Zealand.

Your brand of cricket is refreshing mate
I did watch a lot of your home series against Sri Lanka and enjoyed it.



My question is where Wagner he is a wholehearted player but as others have said ever even contest in most areas

Didn't we draw against you in NZ where Prior made a memorable 100 to save the game and was in with Monty at the end? Williamson with his dodgy action took a few amazing wickets at the end.

I think it's a 400+ wicket, so I'll raise your 389 as par to being under par. Lets see what happens. Not seeing much going on at the moment though, which is rather frustrating!

Looks a good prospect. Whats the verdict on a short run up bowling at that pace? Tough on the body?

Wheels!  We have pace.


Short run uo means less energy. So surely should be able to bowl more?

Proper run up and some pont training could see him hit 95 plus...... or am I just dreaming.

Nice start for Wood. Looks the part and already being compared with Simon Jones.

I see he's wearing no. 667, so intake it Lyth did go with 666. What odds can I get on GM releasing a new bat model called Beast?

From the bits I've been watching they haven't given it a chance to swing.

Jordan can bowl mid 80s and his runup appears to have about as much effort as a casual stroll so there's always room to work I guess.

Does he have a trigger movement at the start of his run up  ???.

I think Kookaburra have rights on the beast name! Maybe if they can convince Lyth to switch and he does well, you might see it come back!?
