    Trott needs to stay for a few hours and get 50100 :-) 200 looks a long way away.
  • Honestly hate watching trott play, such a boring cricketer, but in these situations he is crucial.
    Can see prior getting a big score here, always gets a score when england need him most.

    I don't get why people don't like trott, he's the perfect test batsman imo. He doesn't excite like some batsman but he stays in and scores runs, what more do people want?!

    109/7

    Let's hope our bowlers pull us out of this one, with both bat and ball.

    Must be a lousy batting wicket. Let's see what NZ do.
  • Monty to come in and blast a 50 of 32 balls

    Doesn't appear to be much wrong with the pitch. Some very poor shots.

    Finn and Anderson doing the business at the moment, third highest partnership of the innings. 152/8

    The trouble with this series is that New ZealandEngland don't have much bowling, and even less batting

    poor display so far but it's standard, we never start a test series well.

    Absolute shambles,it seems to me that England think they only have to turn up to win.Very disrespectful to New Zealand.

    One warm up game suggests we have taken the kiwis lightly and believed our own hype after seeing the oZzies thrashed by the Indian team we beat

    That's pissing me off already - everyone talking up the ashes. If we don't beat new Zealand all our momentum will be gone. Never mind the Aussies losing in India... They haven't got a decent spinner. If we get rolled over and can't bowl out new Zealand in new Zealand conditions, what hope have we got in England or Australia? We should have prepared for this match properly and kept our momentum going. We are a much better team than this

    It was bad when I went to bed but it looks even worse now. Looks like we will have to come out all guns blazing in the morning and hope we can bowl them out by the close of day 3. Then bat and bat and bat it out of their reach. Or lose by an innings :-(
  • Wouldn't panic just yet, we were soundly beaten in the first test in India and then look what happened
