Not only that but 3 of the 15 were extras!

They were chasing 140.

I remember in Junior cricket (U14s) we bowled a side out for 8. Our opening bowler took 6-2.

That sounds like my junior batting average ... mind you I knocked a few over, just like my hero Joel Garner.

Similar thing happened at my school, when I was about 13-14.
We bowled a side out for 12: one of my mates, who wasn’t that good a bowler at all, took TWO hat-tricks. 😳

England are annihilating New Zealand. I'm not a big fan of day/night tests, but they're doing this well.

Yes, very impressive so far. Could have been even better but for some awful dismissals and the dropped catch from Crawley. Will be interesting tosee where we are tomorrow once NZ have had the use of the daylight and England have to set a target under lights.

It's game over for NZ.

and your avatar also includes a different big bird!

Interesting end, as if we had lost the lower order wickets carelessly, we might never had declared (330-6 for example is a harder choice to declare than 325-9) and thus not had the chance to knock over 3 of the top order under the lights.

lot of pressure on NZ, as if they don't score quicker, they risk being knocked over with significant deficit in the evening session tmr.

With 3 batters back in the shed, the pressure is on for NZ, I think England had always planned to put them in for a chunk of the last session under lights if they had +300 on the board

TalkSPORT is awful. I just can’t listen to it which is a shame.

It's going to be a very interesting third day.I reckon will we need to set NZ at least a total of 350 plus
In the other test match Australia are 200-6(or 6-200!) in the second test against India.
Cmon you Indians!
