Morning chaps,
Got to agree with the above, and it is clear that New Zealand have out-bowled England in this Test.
Balance looks like a rabbit in the headlights and wasn't even looking at the ball when he was out in the first innings - plus, his fielding has left a lot to be desired - both he and Bell should be rested.
If we bowl like this against the Aussies, we'll be chasing 500/600 every time, although I like the look of Wood and he's got obvious potential. Broad gets wickets, but gets a lot of tap as well. If Anderson had swung the ball as well as their bowlers, we'd still be in this.
Yours aye,
Chunders
