    What we’d give for a guy like Chris Cairns to address the imbalance in the team currently……

    If only there were a hard hitting all rounder with big match temperament and a Kiwi passport in the UK at the moment...

    Or a hard hitting all-rounder with a big match temperament and a Kiwi passport who's actually eligible for us and has a good test batting record (but needs to improve his bowling average)....

    True. What’s the Neesh up to ?

    Throwing darts at a board that has Tim Southee's face on it?

    There’s obviously a joke I’m missing, can you elaborate ?

    What he said…. 🤨

    Nice first ball from a guy who has apparently forgotten how to swing it.

    Jez, that didn't take long. NZ need 38 runs to win.

    This from Cricinfo comments -
    Praise for this NZ side that is strong enough to have made six changes from Lord's and still mopped the floor with the home side. They came to Fortress Edgbaston yesterday and made it look like a bouncy castle... the only real question for this morning is how quickly England can be deflated and folded away,

    Win by 10 wickets before lunch?

    How embarrassing will it be if we make hard work of the chase? Please do it in a canter. Please.

    Fair enough. We’re good and they’re shit.

    Outdated stereotype. We’re a world class team now.

    Fair play to the Barmy Army for making a lot of noise for their team even in these circumstances.

    Joe Root would be playing for the draw in these circumstances.

    Hard to forget the old memories. There's a lot of scar tissue there. These boys are doing a lot to heal the wounds of all those ill fated English tours

    Conway pushes at one. Caught behind. 6-1. 32 runs needed for NZ. 9 wickets needed by England.

    That's a shame for Devon. He'll be disappointed but he's done the hard work. Time for the others to finish this off
