I think there'll easily be enough play in 2 days but assume that's where the 1% comes from.
Does the draw take into account a tie ?? Only way that would be 1% otherwise. Or, as Tubby Taylor mentioned, there could be a sink hole open up & the match abandoned.
It's not raining, but it's incredibly gloomy outside at the moment, probably too dark for even the floodlights, bearing in mind the different rules in red ball cricket?
The first 15 overs are critical. If England can get 40 odd without Root getting out we have a chance. He needs to be there when they take the new ball.
How they use there bowlers will be interesting can they not bowl Boult and Southee before hand? A couple of overs each to start?
Did not expect this , this morning great from Root and Foakes with the conditions heavy cloud and drizzle in Bexleyheath and surrounding areas throught the NZ bowlers would swing us out within the hour .. brilliant great win
Morale booster and a good win .. we were never behind even after a very bad first innings .. Rooooot .. never really rated him as a captain, but of course he is an absolute master batsman .. and well done to Ben Foakes for keeping his end up lol

No 4th seemer really not helping NZ is it.
Both batsmen were great this morning
NZ can't help thinking how much that no ball cost them. As I've said before, I have little or no sympathy when that happens.
For once.
Also to be on 9,900 so a ton brings up the 10,000 then do it, perfect.
