He’s not slower than Mitchell or Southee.

True. Didn’t realise Southee bowls in the 120s these days. But his height means his bouncers are easy to put away

Brook’s batting and figures are frankly ridiculous. He bats like he’s enabled cheat mode.

More great stuff in Wellington this morning. Sorry that Prince Harry didn’t get his double, but England go to lunch in control after Jimmy doing Jimmy things.

Another session won.

New Zealand in serious trouble here at 96/6 at Tea

Fantastic catching by Pope. A couple of Kiwi batsmen committed suicide it has to be said.
A follow-on looking likely.

I can see Stokes going out again and just smashing it around and seeing what they can put on considering time in the game.

That would be his style.

Saying that there is the weather though looks fine after Lunch tomorrow and Monday seems also fine with some disruption on Tuesday.

Shades of James Taylor in South Africa from Pope today

Follow on, glug glug here :slight_smile:

I wouldn’t have done it.

Love a Joe Root wicket

Following on is like winning the toss and bowling. When it works, you’re a genius. Always judged with 20-20 hindsight.

I think it’s mainly because it never works on the PC Cricket Captain game :joy:

Spirited fightback by NZ. Setting up for a cracker.

Yep, great game now.

Congratulations to Williamson. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.
England’s lack of top class spin is a major achilles heel.
