Maybe. I would hope England could reach 350-400 as that would put them in a much stronger position

Listening to TMS at the moment.
Boycott is talking about the recent World Cricket League event in Jersey.
It was a Division 5 competition and Afghanistan beat Jersey in the final!
I'd like to see the ICC open up 20-20 to the smaller teams and have a proper World Cup with something like 24 teams. We've already seen how the 50-over game levels things out a bit. A 20-20 competition like that could see some real upsets...
Vaughan gone. 44-2.

All going tits up! If we don't win this series it'll be a HUGE embarrassment for England!

Good recovery by Pieterson and Ambrose. We need to keep it going though and avoid an early collapse after tea. Currently 180-5

273-7 i reckon 300 is agood score here Sidebottom will cause the New zelanders big problems with his swing.

Yeah, if they reach 300 they are in a strong position

They are currently on 308-7, so mission accomplished in that respect.

Sidebottom makes the breakthrough after a late start. No 10-wicket haul for Anderson...
108-7.

Broad gets one. NZ still need 42 to avoid the follow-on.
123-8.

2 in the over for Broad!
123-9.

Anderson gets the last one to finish with 7-43.
New Zealand all out for 123. Vaughan will surely enforce the follow-on...

looks like it was the right decision to enforce hte follow on so far, 37/2 still 208 runs behind.

Those last 2 wickets were vital, NZ were just beginning to have a chance, now we should be ok, unless it rains for 2 days
