The Cricket Thread 2016

Topley has had a nightmare last couple of overs there.  Dropped a catch off Jordan in the penultimate over, bowled 2 full tosses that went for ten off the first two balls of the last over and then messed up a straightforward run out that cost England the chance of a super over.

Yep, the run out chance for the super over was awful, pretty much unforgivable and he knew it

How not to handle a pressure situation. Shocking.

[PaulWinch again]

Jordan was very very good today. Stokes needs to learn how to play spin or he'll bomb at the World Cup.

Congratulations to Brendon McCullum for setting the new record for his 54 ball Test 100 against the Aussies. Very very unorthodox but brilliant to watch.

It was great to watch. Very hot day though 30c over here.

Roy gone again very cheaply........not sure why he is in the team really

Vince needs to come in for him really IMO

Lucky man being there. I love NZ  cricket grounds. Major item on my "do list" sometime in the future. It was also 3c here...oh ok you had an extra 0 in there!

Yeah Roy is horribly out of form.  Morgan and Buttler starting to motor now, but it is a little concerning how many problems Tahir has caused us considering the upcoming tournament is in India.

[tomd2103]

Just as we were getting on top and 200 was looking doable, there's three pretty bizarre dismissals in a short space of time and we'll do well to get 180.

[manic-road]

Another collapse from England, a few bizarre dismissals.

[DaveD]

Sorry lads, it all went tits as soon as I turned it on.

[Ads]

Woeful stuff from Jordan.

[PaulWinch again]

Terrible batting collapse again.

[Dave Cooper please]

Meh, lost at baseball, don't really care.

[Chris Jameson]

I've given up trying to get into the hit and sometimes run, hadn't realised there's a World Cup coming up.
