New Zealand vs England | 1st Test | Dunedin | Mar 6-10, 2013

[akheR]

Sir Hadlee is an automatic selection in any list of the top 10 greatest fast bowlers and Broad has thread comparisons with Gul... that should settle the debate.

 

[ahmed778]

How much time to go till the match starts?

[Anfield]

NZ deserves to win this one.

 

[Gunther]

Hope Jimmy gets hi fiver today. He stands at 292 wickets and he should have crossed the 300 mark by the end of this series.

 

[vandokkum]

NZ should declare within next 10/ 15 overs with lead around 300 unless they get bowled out.

Look at nick Knight overrating Anderson,

one of the best if not the best

 

[majiz]

what that nick knight who just said jimmy was '....one of the best, if not the best bowler in the world'? what a plank.

 

[majiz]

hivemind. nick knight really is an awful commentator

 

[leatherface58]

Martin has a fc hundred. So he is not that bad.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

This Martin guy looks a pretty decent bat.

 

[vandokkum]

what that nick knight who just said jimmy was '....one of the best, if not the best bowler in the world'? what a plank.

Where is Finn?

 

[Hussey_fan]

lead 292

 

[NZcricketfan]

Where is Finn?

Taking a well deserved break after bringing up his century.

 

[Gunther]

I wouldn't really mind Kiwis batting another 30-40 minutes here. That would allow to England to start only after the early juice in the pitch has dried out

 

[Hussey_fan]

Twitter buzz going on....

 

[vandokkum]

Taking a well deserved break after bringing up his century.

All 3 pacers are centurions, time for monty to get a chance to bring up his hundred

 

[leatherface58]

What juice lol? The only juice if at all is with the new ball. Besides, 167 all out was mostly your lot's fault though we did bowl well.

 

[leatherface58]

Declared. monty won't get his ton

 

[vandokkum]

Declared. monty won't get his ton

So sad, but 3 centurions is enough for one innings, they shouldnt get too greedy

 

[Hussey_fan]

huge task for cook

 

[Gunther]

What juice lol? The only juice if at all is with the new ball. Besides, 167 all out was mostly your lot's fault though we did bowl well.

Almost every pitch in the world is at its furious best for the first hour in the morning. On average, more runs are scored late morning and post lunch session as the pitch tends to calm down by then

 

[James]

Well, chaps, we may not last the afternoon.

 

[vandokkum]

Compton's gotta be the worst England opener in a long time, look pants compared to Strauss and Tresco before him.

 

[James]

This is gonna get uglier than Ryan Sidebottom's gran.

I predict a loss by an innings and 100 runs

 

[Gunther]

Lol James upping the ante here.

 

[vandokkum]

This is gonna get uglier than Ryan Sidebottom's gran.

I predict a loss by an innings and 100 runs

Jinx or wrist slitting, it's quite entertaining though, keep at it

 

[James]

If we save this game then Ali Cook's left armpit will have been raised at least 300 times

 

[leatherface58]

Lol James trying the anti-jinx here. Don't try hard mate you still got opportunity. Weather Gods may make their presence known

 

[James]

Not jinxing, actually think we will get boofed

 

[Jo_Don]

This seems like a completely different Kiwi side to the one that toured here. Credit to them for turning it around so quickly after the mess they were in.

Lots of teams seem to be able to miraculously rouse themeselves when playing against England these days

Yea it's not the same side, No taylor, rutherford and southee.

[Gunther]

Paul Reiffel is gun of an umpire

 

[Jo_Don]

Yea it's not the same side, No taylor, rutherford and southee.

McCullum isn't opening this time around either. That was always going to be a disastrous move.

 

[ahmed778]

Some beauties being bowled by Boult and Southee, it won't be long before a wicket falls.

 

[ahmed778]

Good movement by Boult.

 

[ahmed778]

Beaten again.
