What the heck is up with your cricket team?
And that new coach, wherever he's from.
Surely they should have whimpered towards a draw, or plummeted off the cliff for a loss.
Fantastic win. 160 scored in the last 16 overs.
What entertainment.
Brilliant.

It was quite incredible.
Actually this series v NZ is the first cricket I've watched in decades - used to love playing and watching the game as a kid.

After last night, a few of us are wondering if he knows anything about football.

Who'd have thought a 3-0 series win for England.
A change of approach to the game perhaps?
Three games, with ups and downs, but well played by your guys.

There doesn't seem to be any consistency though, Brett. I don't follow cricket like I used to, but I get the impression that England could go out and lose the next series and nobody would be too surprised.

You'd better watch out.
Your team are fast becoming the darlings of world cricket.

And may resurrect a following in test cricket as bankable entertainment.

We only ever build our sporting heroes up so we have the opportunity to knock them back down twice as fast at a later date. It's what we English do.  |
