2nd Test Eng v NZ

NZ are throwing this away!

Bowling short to Bairstow and Stokes with an old ball on a ground with short boundaries...

Cunning plan if it works.
They need the wicket don't they, with these bowlers, so hoping for a top edge.

Even if these two reigned it in, they should still chase this easily now, even with our dodgy tail.

Like Athers just said though, bowling changes coming, so get the eye back in for an over on those and then the ball could be going all over the park.
 
Not sure whether stokes should tee off, or just hold that end up as he clearly having trouble with running.

Suppose he can just wait for bad balls now, with Bairstow still in, and flying.
 
Cuthbert you really are trying very hard at downplaying our chances although I suspect deep down you are as hopeful as the rest of us. 😀
Mate. I just get so gutted when it f**ks up.... so yes, that's exactly what I'm doing.

I'll now be EVEN more gutted, as this has been awesome!
 
Incredible this, NZ captain has no idea what to do, but there's not much he can do now.
He's been dealt a pretty lousy hand to be honest, with Jamieson injured and Southee below par. That said, not convinced it would have made much difference the way these two are batting.
