Trent Boult, for me, is the most talented left arm fast bowler in the world. If he had the pace of either Mitch, he'd probably be the best bowler in world.

Some solid catching from NZ as Ali goes.

England have got the tactics wrong, should have looked to counter attack and now into the tail.

He is as good as Johnson even of he is a few mph down at the moment and in these condition's.

In 2 balls wood looks a better option at 9 then. Broad

Yes in these conditions Boult is clearly better. Johnson has struggled in England. But if Boult had that extra 10kph just imagine how much better he would be.

That's not quite right.
Having more speed doesn't always mean better. He will probably have a much longer career at his speed as well.

BJ's very tough drop on the boundary proving to be pretty expensive. It's led to 43 runs in this partnership thus far...

Spin breaks the partnership. Craig gets Wood caught behind. Good catch by Ronchi

Lack of a genuine fast bowler(145-150kph) has hurt both teams in this match when trying to clean out the tailenders.

Decent effort from broad in the end. Batted longer than anyone expected.

Perfect conditions for England to knock NZ over cheaply now

It's not the lack of a high pace bowler, it's bowling stupid short pitched rubbish on a deck where fuller deliveries get wickets.
