Backed Root @ 7/2 as England first inns top scorer. Wasn't expecting him in quite yet, though!

Poor poor shot after the 2nd wicket has gone down. Too close to him, just poor judgement and a crap shot from the CAPTAIN. We've built the future around this bloke. :facepalm:

He's only still playing for England based upon a century in against the West Indies.

English cricket is in a right old mess.

FFS, why do we even bother with a top order?

On paper this should be a great series between 2 evenly matched teams.

However, New Zealand have all the momentum with them and a strong dynamic captain, I have a fear that's going to be enough to see us off.

Evenly matched.:lol: I wouldn't want to get on a see-saw with you.

I'm annoyed with myself that I lost all the money out of my ladbrokes account during the football season.

On paper. Evenly matched. Look at the averages....

Do you really think New Zealand's players are massively better than ours? They are on a high and they are extremely well led.

We on the other hand don't have a coach and a captain in the role by default.

Lyth is the only one out who was genuinely unlucky.

:lolol: Moeen is having to leg it around the ground as he's been practicising in the nets and needs to get padded up! :moo:
