market taking into account the fact that these runs are now becoming important

nothing on the radar either. Just had a look so no chance of rain.

Jeffrey Archer writing a new script here!

blockers arrived

156 balls to hold on.

What's happening? Anyone would think a typhoon had hit.

The wonders of Test cricket - time + impatience = market panic.

79 years young, haven't seen him for ages, probably stuck in a permanent bottle of scotch

Kane Williamson feeling his right hip too. Its an old injury so that could be a worry for NZ for the next test.

Not surprising what he has been through. Could be all senile in an old ppls home I suppose.

looks bloody well!!

I hope I am that lucid at 79!!

Yeah thats pretty incredible.

I hope Butler, Root, Pope and that other muppet are watching this and thinking how they did a few of us on the forum out of our draw money. Ass holes.

I still think Eng can save this

bowlers are tiring, no Boult

Southee looks fcuked

b2b TDs in the footbaw

That Kittle is a brilliant TE

144 balls to go. 69 runs behind. If they can knock off the 69 it could be interesting.

wagner now ffs

Kane Williamson off the field. That hip does not look good. Wagner on again. 4

Chinese water torture

Santa's best FC figs are three fer
WHAT THE FCUK

1.02 backers on rope watch!

138 balls to go, 65 runs behind.

The main worry is when they start thinking about the runs and play a reckless shot

C'mon the draw!!!!!!!!

wow 6.60 on the draw. Psychology goes both ways I suppose. If you are on NZ you would be getting worried too and looking to get out etc.

132 balls, still 65 behind

as I type its 5.70

not far away now

5.20

do i go for gold or cash out for pennies?

FOOK

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

what a ****

FOOOOOOOOOK

can't believe that, should have put the order in.

not your game Jucel. Can't really blame Archer either. The blame goes on Butler, pope and root.

and the two openers!

Yes definitley the 2 openers as well. That was shocking last night. Broad the last hope.

fk me i was dithering

that was sickening

Always scale out, Jucel. The feeling of missing the entire trade by one tick is too depressing.

It did move very quick. I did not take any either.

all over

broad should bat in brown trousers!

t0ssers

see you lads on Friday in Hamilton. I have to go and prep for my trip to Westport. Leave early tomorrow at about 5am wake up. Enjoy the burgers Jucel, and fook the English batters. Bunch of Wanekers

wonder what utter dross Joe 90 will come out with

How different it could have been if Leach had reviewed.

Yeah that would have been all the difference. You can blame the batter that was batting with him there too I hear.

yep, he could have stuck around for an hour or so
How they have been bowled out on that pitch defies belief

Right out of here. Lets see what the draw price is for the second test. Might have to have some if its highish.

If Root comes out all smiles someone should punch him.

a horror test that shouldve been a walk in the park.....

laters tyco

I should have taken my own advice and had a nibble when NZ were 8s+ - I usually wait for 11s
before building a position against a long bating innings but you just can't trust Eng to hold on to a good position.

Revy chum so!

How flip-floppy are NFL games compared to cricket?

Ha - we've finished just in time for the Desert Filth.

Got my wires crossed there - I meant the Syed Mushtaq T20 tourney.

England batsmen= GUTLESS.  Then the same old excuses from Root.

England under Root are bang average and i put us behind India,Australia,South Africa and New Zealand and maybe on a par with Pakistan although recent series were drawn at home and lost in a neutral venue and par with West Indies although most recently they beat us 2-1 in the carribean and prior to that we won 2-1 at home, we really have dropped off the pace at test match level during the last few years with the batting a complete and consistent shambles placing too much pressure on an ageing bowling line up when Broad and Anderson are playing who will both need replacing very shortly leaving a massive hole in the bowling department albeit that Anderson has been injured anyway,we have zero chance of being near the top end of this new test championship as it currently stands.

Root says not to panic. Haven't we heard that one before?

And some racial abuse crap from Jofra. It was one guy ffs!

England an average test team at the moment.

I don’t blame Jofra - one racist is still one racist too many. I expect the NZ authorities will act decisively in this case.

Goes to show just how good Strauss, Cook, Bell, Colly, KP and Prior were.

If you're abused by one member of the crowd you should't be tweeting it. By all means make an official complain, but don't whine abt it. Because you're only going to get more of it. They will have to play in front of empty stands like in Bulgaria.

missed out trott. saw that top 6 rack up something like 1150 for 6 in successive innings on the 2010 ashes tour ! those were the days when we could bat and bat

Jesus wept this has been blown up out of all proportions.
Now KW talking about 'horrific racial abuse'

What would be funny is of one ****er hurls racial abuse then everyone next to him moves a few feet away, Archer walks towards him saying "sorry, what was that?" while the overhead cam zooms in and puts the idiot on the big screen.

It would be a real "Your Majesty is like a stream of bat's p!ss" moment.

As in:-

"What the devil do you mean by that?"

"I err..err..um....I merely meant your Majesty that you..err..
....shine out like a shaft of gold when all around is dark"

Amazing to be able to hear a voice from the crowd when you are batting in the middle, supposedly concentrating on saving the game
I haven't heard any of the other Kiwis or Sam Curran mention it either.
I'm yet to be convinced Archer really wants to play test cricket. His attitude is poor at times

Is this an easy way to exit without looking like he can't hack it?

Apparently the person was yelling bbc and bc from the scoreboard area.
Surely somebody else heard it?

KW has apologized though he didn't hear anything and even though archer clearly mentioned it was someone from the barmy army.
I initially thought he was abused while walking back. If you can get abused while being out in the middle imagine what the boundary fielders go through over 5 days f cricket.

I don't get it.

He' big he's black, whats the problem.

The big part is certainly a compliment but the black part not anymore.

His test career will be very short if he doesn't toughen up.
Bowling 130s and then all of a sudden 150s when he feels like it.
tbf Root's usage of him is absolutely terrible
He should be the strike bowler told to bowl fast for 4/5 over bursts.
No way should he ever be bowling channels at 130s

black is the correct terminology

If somebody was shouting that loudly, black bastard or black c*nt everybody would have heard and stared.
It wasn't barmy army DT, he would have got a mouthful from England fans if it had been a Barmy Army member

I see I misread the tweet. Was wondering how fellow barmy lads would let someone do that.

I know he's only 24 but he's going to have to learn how to ignore people. You cannot let one person's insult become the highlight of the game. Wrong reaction imo. Should have just filed a report with the ground authorities at most and brushed it aside when asked. Now we have KW and NZ board apologizing to him. Ashley Giles making a comment too.

The NZ crows isn't going to be too harsh but when he travels to places like India and Aus they are going to ask him to tweet every insult they throw at him. UAE probably the safest place for him with those empty stands The stump mic is going to pic any insult the crowd throws at him.

Im hearing some rumours that the King is involved in this after doing his nuts backing draw.
