Anderson gets the final wicket!
England win. :bow:
:dance:
Anderson moves up to 3rd in Englands all time leading wicket takers :bow:
NZ are terrible.
Cook apart, England look very average. They'll win the ashes cos Aussies are even worse but both are miles behind Soith Africa.
ODI, Kiwis chasing 228 are 1-2 Anderson :bow:
Took a while for the third to come. 121-3, Taylor goes for 54.
Just before that Nasser was bemoaning the decision for England to go to their best bowler for a needed wicket. :blink:
Buttler. :haha:
Had a chance to get Guptill out on 99.
NZ win. :lol: And Guptill gets his century!
England. :doh:
England are awful in pressure cricket
Champions Trophy on soon. :(
NZ 117-1 off 23 overs
Guptill has a half century. He was dropped by Trott early on in his innings :doh:
202-2, Guptill just got another century. :bow:
The England wickets are doing nothing this summer. India played a warm-up yesterday and chased down 334 against Sri Lanka. It was like bowling on a road. In county cricket too there have been more runs than usual.
Guptill up to 144. NZ nearing 300.
God forbid bowlers actually have to use some talent to get wickets instead of letting the pitch do all the work
The likes of McGrath, Warne, Munaf Patel etc will be turning in their graves
167 for Guptill.
Trott. :doh:
FFS.
Munaf Patel :lol:Quote:

NZ make 359-3. :haha:
England need to get the second ever highest run chase in ODIs.
189 off 155 for Guptill. Not bad.
7.2 runs an over needed.
Over to you Cook and Trott. Eek.
Think you mean Dernbach? 10 overs for 87 :lol:Quote:

Yeah I did, should have realised by the stumps not going flying at the non striker's end and that Finn isn't actually playing.
Casual watching on Sky Go. :bow:
England will start well, Bell with fall over and it'll go tits up from thereon in.
Pretty much guaranteed Cook and/or Trott will get half centuries off 90 odd balls which won't be good enough but their averages will be boosted and they will be praised as world class by the clueless
Love watching Bell bat. Quality technique and can play every shot in the book.
Cook 31 off 24 balls so far. Bowlers are chucking pies. Would love to lay into these half-volleys.
50-1
Cook gone for 34
Another flop from him. World class indeed :haha:
64-2
Bell gone and with him, all hope
Bell has all the technique but none of the staying power.
Trott has 8 from 17 balls :haha:
:lol:Quote:

This is a good challenge for Root. Ugly style but has a lot of staying power. The anti-Bell.
Did I just hear David Gower right? That was only Trott's 3rd ever 6 in ODIs? Incredible given he averages over 50...though it does explain 75 strike rate.
Only way England are winning this is if Trott gets out ASAP and it gives their other players enough time
Root gone for 28
Trott in his 30s off 40 odd balls :haha:
Morgan goes
Other batsmen have to score exceptionally quick to cover for Trotts pathetic innings of 2 fours and 1 six in 60 odd balls.
He's passed his 50 as expected but the worst player I've seen in cricket ever by a mile
169-5, Buttler goes for 2.
I don't think England will win this.
212-6
Woakes gone
213-7
Bresnan run out
221-8
Swann gone
Humiliation is nearly complete.
After 41 overs, England are actually ahead of where NZ were :lol:
265-9
Anderson gone for a quick fire 28
In other news, Trott scores the most pointless century of all time
Trott 103* off 100 balls.
What an innings.
Cripps :haha:
Awful judge of cricketing ability.
273 all out
NZ win by 86 runs
England are terrible. Trott is the Messi of cricket. Not a team player and only interested in his own performances
