Its quite incredible

 

[Mcbean]

That was fun

England need 7 with 1 wicket in hand, tight finish. Loving it

Bollocks, but fair play to NZ for coming back. What a great test match.

Should never have let them back in the game with the follow on to be fair

Would have been a draw

Game turned on the Brook run out.
Foakes shouldn't have been sucked in like that but that is bazball.

Did I see a bloke in a City shirt on the grass bank when Pope (I think) edged one through the slips?

Would have been a draw

And an away series win. No way you would enforce that follow on in the Ashes with an ageing attack and club spinner

Not sure

If they had batted and declared and set a target of 350 then New Zealand may well have knocked them off anyhow. This team want to win games and will take a chance of losing to give themselves a chance of winning.

I think it’s a win win for cricket - so close the result could have gone either way

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Reminds me in a way of the famous Australia-West Indies Test in the early 60s. Both sides just went for it in the name of entertainment and it ended in a tie with a direct hit runout for the final wicket.

Hurts to be on the losing end of games like this but they go down in cricket legend and always require both sides to have played their part.

Switched on Sky watch nearly an hour when I switch on Lahore were 50-7of 9.3 overs just lost their last wicket 10 overs and 98 run later. Good watch.

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Good finish coming up 41 needed off 3 overs

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Be a good win from here 25 off 1 over

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Zaman Khan slings it thats not bowling
