apparently both teams wanted to bowl first

 

.

 

Really up against it now

 

Should make for a decent test match. Can't expect New Zealand to fold every time. They are too good for that. Game on.

 

a lot depends on how many england get in return now...both teams wanted to win the toss to put the others in according to the commentators so an interesting game ahead.

 

Need an early wicket here

 

Not quite a champagne moment, but highlight of the day.

 

Going to be a long day here I reckon

 

I think I will be listening more than watching to-day.

 

NZ ramping it up now

 

England currently 10/1 to win… That seems short

 

Potts should have caught that one.

 

This isn’t going well…

 

Ukraine v Armenia looking very appealing at 2pm

 

****ing grim this

 

Pathetic. I’ve seen better fielding from school teams.

 

****ing hell, I've put the Ukraine game on from KO but just had a peek in the sky sports app. Sounds like Leach has been absolutely violated.

 

I would put £10 of your money on anything less than 50/1 from here. Unless they can score 600 in 2 days this is 70/28/2 New Zealand/draw/England for me

Edit: Draw may increase if it rains for
2 days!!

 

Easy to field when things are going well. I’ve watched some of the best fielders In the world drop easy catches and some of the worst take stunning catches. If this was 180/5 I reckon Potts takes the catch and the fielders pick up 99% of the ones they’ve missed. Scoreboard pressure makes it tough.
