Can't argue with that session, England are firmly in control. Win the next session and barring weather, we should win the test.
For me, they are the best. A win would be a huge step for this England team and a major scalp. Plenty of play in this test but we are 1 good session away from cracking it open.Yes we are certainly in a strong position but we should bear in mind NZ have just beaten India 3-0 in India . They must be amongst the strongest ever sides from NZ.
Cramp! Were you dreaming you had just bowled thirty quick overs in Islamabad?Bah woken up with cramp :( Great cameo from Atkinson so let's hope Carse can stick around to get Stokes to his ton. The wicket will look very different facing a 150 deficit. Told you the green in the wicket first day wouldn't matter.
meh, life is just meh.Cramp! Were you dreaming you had just bowled thirty quick overs in Islamabad?
The sad reality is that Wood and Archer will be injured either before or during the next two series. We need a solid plan B and I agree those two look decent.Carse is a real prospect, can see he and Atkinson being our attack for the future, he has the attributes to be a real threat in Australia, need to balance the workload of all our quicks over the summer so we can have a real go at the Aussies next winter
I'd ditch both and concentrate on the fit and form gameplans from there.The sad reality is that Wood and Archer will be injured either before or during the next two series. We need a solid plan B and I agree those two look decent.
The prospect of having Archer, Wood, Carse and Atkinson to rotate in Oz fills me with joy, in the latter we may have the 'new Stokes'. We also have Olly Stone and Matty Potts not to mention our very own Mahmood. The future is bright if you ask me not that anybody does :(The sad reality is that Wood and Archer will be injured either before or during the next two series.

It’s an exciting prospect but it’s like an injury bingo with the England quicks, you can see at least two having niggles.The prospect of having Archer, Wood, Carse and Atkinson to rotate in Oz fills me with joy, in the latter we may have the 'new Stokes'.

Whoops 88 ahead now 93 ahead fat fingers. This is not going to be interesting just a matter of time.This is looking good but NZ at least fitghting. 58 ahead and two wickets left and a 5ver for Carse.
Like me you don't mind talking to yourself. I do it when Mrs Ross is asleep, I rarely talk when she's awake as I don't like to interrupt.Kebabs it is NZ 101 ahead with one wicket remaining and I'm going back to bed. Beware I may be back if I can't sleep and bore you to death with my various illnesses.
Talking to myself is my hobby and superpower which is just as well really.Like me you don't mind talking to yourself. I do it when Mrs Ross is asleep, I rarely talk when she's awake as I don't like to interrupt.![]()
