Plunkett has brought his figures back well the last few overs.

Not hard, to be fair!

And there goes No3

Helpful though. 

[Hand Shandy]

Inside edge actually, but who cares.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Especially now, plus another set batsman goes. Great ball. Well, a bit lucky actually, but you make your own luck. 

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Plunkett has pulled it right back here after 4 overs of bilge. 

[Jairzinho]

Lovely. 

 

Dreadful shot, no foot movement at all.

If this was at OT , Edgbaston or Headingley the atmosphere alone would make it feel like a World Cup Final .

Yeah it did. Until the upper crust lot got all complainy about it.

I'd bring Archer back for an over now, two new batsmen at the crease.

The Toffs have to have their day out to talk business and get pissed on expensive liquid. Home of Cricket my arse. 

Aye, why we played the final at this shithole is beyond me

It was never, and will never be anything else mate. Unless it's flooded are burnt down. Plus they'd just build a new one ASAP.

Yeah, I want their middle/lower order to have to bat 15-20 overs not 8/10.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Cunts, making me switch to More4. 

[Dan Vito Corleone]

This is the spell now. Two new batsmen. If we can gut their mid-order they could be gone for 180 because they don't bat long. We need to put try and cause irreparable damage to their innings between 30 and 35. 

[Dougie Do'ins]

NZ need a couple of big overs here. They've got to be looking to be + 150 at the 35 over mark. The longer this run rate continues, the bigger chances they're going to forced to take.

Would have been a much better final if England had batter first .

Have New Zealand been taken over by Mourinho, grind out a below average total then defend it like fuck

They just play to their strengths mate.

Weather seems to be working out as predicted.
