Still, Sidebottom and Monty eh? Should be worth another 50-odd

And there goes Sidebottom

[mrkikiet]

thank you.

Broad. Try and bounce them out with the new ball.

You're my hero, just loaded that up in time to see Anderson dispose of Bell

Fine delivery

NZ 4/1

Bell b Anderson 0

 

[jonnyd1978]

Even better than the ball that did Vaughan! Great wicket...now we need Fleming!

 

[SpookyFrank]

A bloody good over from Sidebottom there, let's hope we get another wicket before the kiwis settle in...

 

[jonnyd1978]

Go on Jimmy! Another plus point for Strauss is his slip catching! We struggle there at times especially as we're missing Flintoff in there too.

 

[SpookyFrank]

9 for 2! Can't say fairer than that. Good show James Anderson, two very good wickets

There's been good movement but to be honest, we've bowled too wide! Anderson has only bowled 2 balls that would have hit the stumps and they've both got wickets! Can't complain though.

just seen the highlights. seaming well - that first wicket was a pearler! lots of movement as well which is a good sign. the break came at the wrong time! fingers crossed we can keep it going.

 

[jugularvein]

andersen's bowling like a man possesed.

 

[SpookyFrank]

Fine by me if 31-3 is the end product

 

[shagnasty]

collinwood took 3 for 23 and made 65 in a big partnership may be man of the match on the play so far

 

[Teaboy]

The SKY commentators seem to think 350 is a really good score on this pitch. I don't see how they can say that until both teams have batted to be honest.

Looks like they have been on the money this time.

I reckon a lead of 350 should be enough to win this game. That being said there is so much time left in the game England just need to bat NZ out of the game.

But England are 1-0 down & need to win this test & the next to take a series they really should walk...

The weather in Wellington is usually dodgy, so to just think of batting NZ out of the game isn't enough....

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Brilliant stuff, nz 198 all out, now thats revenge! I think we need a lead of 400 maybe just to be sure 350 minimum.

 

[SpookyFrank]

I think we need a lead of 400 maybe just to be sure 350 minimum.

We're 150-odd in front already so a lead of 400 isn't too much to ask. KP's due a proper innings as well...

 

[agricola]

Lloyd can be an annoyance, but I did laugh at his crediting Monty with Gillespies wicket following his fuckup in the field.

 

[SpookyFrank]

Is there another linky for the live TV knocking about anywhere?

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Dunno, but vaughan just got dropped. Currently 21-0.
