The Cricket Thread

500 lead and day 2 isn't finished. Looks like Stokes is in biff mode to set up a declaration which isn't needed with three days left.
 
I’d imagine we’ll bat on to give Root the opportunity to get another ton. No reason not to with three days left.
 
The next Test starts 4 days after the end of this one, we should look to drive their bowlers into the dirt and bat for as much of the day as we can. Still gives 2 days+ to bowl them out with a lead of 7/800 odd.
 
England become the first test team to amass 500k runs.
 
Absolutely astonishing victory by 323 runs for England in 3 days. Some incredible cricket and after a really shaky start, they really took the game to the Kiwi's. Have to say they got most of the rub of the green going their way with half chances not going to hand when they batted and then every chance NZ gave seemed to stick. We know this approach can come unstuck but it is so entertaining.

An excellent series win as everyone pretty much expected a harder fight given what NZ did in India. Well played Brooks. The difference maker.
 
That’s just ridiculous to win by so many in just 3 days. Also scoring over 700 runs most teams take 3 days alone to amount that many.
 
Potts in for Woakes. Makes sense to give him a run with the series in the bag.

Apparently it is going to be very hot in Hamilton. Unusual for over there. I can confirm it is infernal over the other side of the trench lately.
 
Ashwin finished with India in all formats, a lot of that generation will be gone in the next year or two.
 
India get their wish and will play next years Champions Trophy at neutral venues and not in Pakistan.
I’ll presume Pakistan will miss out on hosting the final if India get there.
 
Annoyingly I can't remember who, but saw a pundit the other day picking his ODI side and he wanted Curran batting at 5 😅
