England's tour of New Zealand

[Holden Mcgroyne]

He's taken a few wickets at the arse end of a tour after months of utter dross. He's not going to convince anyone by bagging a few in what are almost English bowling conditions.

He's worked on his action and got wickets as a result. Every other bowler apart from Anderson has been worse than Broad this winter (Overton excepted, perhaps). At the end of the day, Broad will be the only bowler to win us a test all winter.

I'm not a big Broad fan, but his overall test record is up there with the greats and on current diminished form he is still ahead of any alternatives England could pick. His batting is neither here nor there, the management need to bat him at an appropriate place now. It's wicket takers England need to win tests.

Fair comment Lou.

First one was a dreadful delivery.
Second one was a fucking peach

[Lou Grant]

3 wickets to go.

A third test would've been good. NZ offered us 3 tests, the ECB turned them down.

[Jonathan]

Good effort but ultimately yet another test series, if you can call it that, loss.
No doubt we will have a good Summer and all will be good again.

Don't fancy our chances against Pakistan on this form.

We desperately need some new bowlers - or not to shift bowlers like Rashd, that can at least take wickets, over to ODI cricket.
