England v New Zealand - 3rd ODI - Nottingham

New Zealand win the toss and bowl. Hoping for a Guptill ton to make it three in a row.

Colin Munro and Tim Southee come into the side for Grant Elliott and Doug Bracewell

Finn, Broad, Tredwell & Bopara in for Anderson, Swann, Dernbach & Woakes

 

[WebGuru]

So England leave out Jade Dernbach and Chris Woakes.

 

[WebGuru]

Men in Red are ready to bat...

[WebGuru]

What are the odds for a 3-0 whitewash?

Yea but McClenaghan looks quite good

 

[WebGuru]

[Bullet Drive]

 

[Bullet Drive]

3-1

 

[Aman]

Cook goes early

 

[Bullet Drive]

No more reviews left for the whole innings.

 

[Aman]

I was telling you McClenaghan looks good what a delivery! man here goes Cook

Tell that to M_G lol

 

[WebGuru]

Eng on verge of a whitewash in their own backyard.

 

[WebGuru]

Tell that to M_G lol

oh yea!

 

[Sherlock]

The next Bradman gone

 

[WebGuru]

I am curious what's going to be the headline in English media after a 3-0 ? The are always interested in criticizing others and whenever their team lose they will come up with some stupid reasons to defend them.

 

[WebGuru]

Is it a Test match? 6 runs in 6 overs ...

 

[Executioner]

The english cricket team deserves applause for world wide cure of insomnia

 

[WebGuru]

50+ partnership now between Bell & Trott both looking comfortable now.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

McClenaghan

youngsta beauty

 

[WebGuru]

Trott the wall gone

 

[WebGuru]

McClenaghan is not very fast but is accurate most of the time he seems to be a bowler who knows where to bowl within limits.

 

[WebGuru]

McClenaghan figures looks good 6-1-16-2

 

[Justcrazy]

140 / 2

 

[Justcrazy]

Poms will get to close to 300 here.

 

[IAJ]

The usual stuff from Bell. Once there is no preassure he scores and keeps his place for the next series.

 

[WebGuru]

Root going good in ODI's his scores in last 10 ODI's he played: 79*,57*,56,39,36,31*,31,30,28*,28

Means this guy didn't got out under 25 yet and his SR is 85+

 

[Justcrazy]

 

[WebGuru]

Today we might see 4th 50+ score by Root in last 11 ODI's he played.

 

[Justcrazy]

Root going good in ODI's his scores in last 10 ODI's he played: 79*,57*,56,39,36,31*,31,30,28*,28

He is a very solid batsman , knows his limitation and plays according to that.

To be fair to Bell he's been pretty decent in ODIs. He has been scoring consistently.

And there's a lot on stake here. England want a win to be confident going into the trophy. The series result won't matter as much compared to winning the Champions Trophy.

 

[Justcrazy]

2 quick wickets for Kiwis here.

An average of 36 and only 3 Tons 130 matches is pretty decent in ODIs? And call it what you want, but this is a dead rubber, no preassure what so ever.

 

[Justcrazy]

PP taken now..........

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson going through overs quickly here.

 

[IAJ]

Lols 2 lucky escapes for Bopara.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dropped !!!

 

[Justcrazy]

williamson continues .

 

[Robert]

I am curious what's going to be the headline in English media after a 3-0 ?

Probably the media will give England a clout, but noting that the NZ matches are JAMODIs while the Champions Trophy are MODIs.

 

[Justcrazy]

3 more runs

 

[Justcrazy]

169 / 4 after 39 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

173 / 4

[Justcrazy]

Good over for kiwis three runs of that.

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson has bowled well here again......... 26 from his 7 overs

 

[WebGuru]

260-270 expected

 

[Justcrazy]

188 / 4

7 overs left

Welll that is decent.

[Justcrazy]

210 / 5

 

[WebGuru]

[WebGuru]

Really bad over by McClenaghan 20 runs including 6 extras in this over.

[mithun_minhas]

[WebGuru]

WTH buttler on 45 in in 15 balls

 

[mithun_minhas]

Good innings by Butler.

[Justcrazy]

Butler , what an innings

 

[WebGuru]

So 64 runs in last 3 overs WOW they were at 223 in 47 overs thn 287 in 50 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

[mithun_minhas]

WTH buttler on 45 in in 15 balls

Helped by full tosses and length balls.

Takes talent to hit them. Butler used the rubbish bowling to full extent.

 

[WebGuru]

McClenaghan was good till his 9th over but lost in in his final over.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Southee, Mcclenaghan and Mills all looked like 6 Foot Dindas

 

[MattyB]

LOL @ commies comparing Butler to Dhoni

LOL @ you completely missing their point. Buttler(yes it's two t's not one) had just launched one into the second tier and they were simply pointing out that soon we would be seeing the likes of Gayle and Dhoni doing the same around the country. They were not comparing Buttler to Dhoni, they were just pointing out that he is just one of the many players who can give the ball a good smack.

 

[WebGuru]

He was almost at the edge of making the fastest fifty.

 

[WebGuru]

3rd consecutive century for Guptill possible?

 

[WebGuru]

Guptill 292* in this ODI series so far.

 

[WebGuru]

2 consecutive 4's by Ronchi against Broad

 

[WebGuru]

12 runs in broad first over
