10th Match: England vs New Zealand at Jo'Burg

[Howsie]

Oh god Don't do this New Zealand

 

[nz0003]

Give him out.

 

[evertonfan]

Vettori should give him out tbh. It's only fair.

 

[Howsie]

We'll look like grade-A hypocrites.

 

[Ari]

Good decision. That would have been tempting since it was Collingwood.

 

[evertonfan]

We'll look like grade-A hypocrites.

I suppose, but it's just a case of getting your own back really. Given that it was actually Collingwood under threat of being given out as well.

We'll look like grade-A hypocrites.

It's more stupidity from Collingwood rather than what happened with Sideass when he plainly took him out. Unless of course the umpire called over.

 

[King Pietersen]

Add Daniel Vettori to my list of NZ cricketers I like. That takes it to a massive 4 now. Played Daniel. What on earth was Collingwood doing just wondering out of his crease? The call of over surely had to have been made.

 

[Howsie]

Okay so Harper sort of screwed up. McCullum's a quick thinker though, he's always trying to pull this sort of stuff.

Howsie added 0 Minutes and 46 Seconds later...

Who are the other three

And only four

 

[Brook]

He had called over, so good decisions all round, but Colly's still an idiot.

 

[King Pietersen]

Who are the other three

And only four

McCullum, Bond, Taylor and now Vettori.

And yeah, only four. I don't find any of the other players in this side are particularly interesting, ridiculously talented or entertaining. Can't say I enjoy watching NZ much tbh.

That side angle showed that Harper had called over, so Vettori was right to let him stay at the crease. Pure stupidity from Collingwood to just walk out of his crease though.

 

[evertonfan]

How has Vettori only just now made it on to this list Dan? The man's a complete champion. Along with james Franklin. What an absolute legend.

AND HERE HE IS! Zomg take a 7'fer please Franklin. But leave us with enough runs that will allow you to score a hundred as well.

 

[Howsie]

Tbh I'm a little nervous for Ian Butler here. In most of the games he's played for us since coming backi into the team he can be a tad expensive, I've got that feeling he might do the same here.


Come on Franky.

 

[Brook]

I don't really like the look of the England batting lineup after these two, they're going to have to stick around.

 

[evertonfan]

Can't Ian Butler bowl at 105mph though?
