Yep, need couple of more wickets, England don't want to be chasing 250, pitch looks slow.
NZ have obviously got a total in mind. As you say, the pitch looks slow and they still haven’t pressed the accelerator. Reckon they’d be made up with 250 from here.
94 Corner to us. Last kick. Ali in the box and he’s scored

Probably but they will be disappointed having been 103-1. They would have been thinking around 280 I think.

Definitely but as soon as Williamson got out they needed to reassess. Really difficult game to call at the moment.

Absolute travesty if Archer finishes this match without a wicket
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

They’re praising him on comms but that was utter tripe from Archer there. 8 off the over and NZ didn’t have to do anything.

Did this against Australia too. He only bowled nine. Obviously it worked out fine but surely he has to get ten on this pitch.

If he doesn't that's poor from Morgan, given the earlier lack of threat from Rashid's overs who bowled a couple foo many for me.

NZ struggling to get the ball off the square here. Terrible batting, you wouldn't realize a wc was on the line.

But that's how they play and rely on their bowling attack to win them the game.

I honestly don't think it's the plan to hit only one boundary in the last ten overs.

The body language from NZ isn’t great here but I think they’re well in the game, possibly only 20 runs short of where they’d like to be.  A lot depends on the first 10 overs of the England innings admittedly, but if they get England a couple down early it’s on for them.

I love lords. It’s a wonderful experience.  Different, but great.

It seems poorer when it is an odi or big name test opponent, presumably test matches against lesser name test sides are in much lower demand so you get a more enthusiastic and vocal crowd then.
