    ... and the New Zealand pitches and conditions are generally viewed as being similar to those in England - so no valid excuses for 58 all out

    Sixth lowest England test match innings total of all time!

    Did we win?

    Love days out at the cricket with Headingley being a favourite place to visit. However I must admit to not enjoying cricket when we lose but love it when we win. I am the ultimate plastic cricket fan!!

    I like 20-20 but prefer the test matches.

    Jeees, Out before lunch or tea? That's more shocking than getting bowled out for a low total int second innings.

    At least we're still in it!

    Since cricket went to Sky what was it 20/ 25 years ago the country has pretty much fallen out of love/ forgotten about cricket.

    Only the Indians and Pakistanis care about it any more.

    I still watch Channel 5's 1 hour coverage which is better than nowt.

    BBC 2 was great. Watching the home test matches or a replay when they were rained off.

    Watched it yesterday on TV, very strange performance. Yes the pitches are similar and swing is the order of the day, but the batsmen were all over the shop. Rain may yet save the day.Also don't think that NZ are easy beats they have some class players.
