After the remarkable game at Edgbaston... what await at the Oval this afternoon?

Morgan continues to be a useless tosser, and NZ have elected to bat first, unsurprisingly!

Looking forward to this one as wfh today. Was gutted to have been in the office for the first one. I must have watched Plunkett's 2 6's to take us past 400 at least 20 times on the highlights show

Should be interesting. Our bowling wasn't really tested or examined in the last one. Lets see whether they step up as well as the batting did. Should be an enthralling contest as I don't expect NZ to be quite so shocked by England this time.

*GULP* They are feasting on the delicious buffet of bowling so far.

Out of the ground as I type this, normal service resumed. 45 off 5.3 overs.

What's the misquoted definition of insanity - Keep doing the same thing and expecting a different result??

This could very easily be 400, we need some wickets.
