Infinitely preferable to the dreadful Talksport effort!
Anderson still playing ???!!!
I remember him competing with Simon Jones in the olden days.

Do you think England will get those runs @Furryanimal? Apparently the pitch is very slow. This ‘new’ England squad never give up so here’s hoping!
The New Zealand radio commentary team-(prefer them to Talksport)before NZ were bowled out-were talking about England being happy to chase seven an over.
If it doesn’t rain-apparently might be some in the morning session-I think they can.
Either way Coach and Captain don’t do draws.
All day to score just over 200 -England will fancy that.
And there is the extra 30 minutes play because of rain on the first two days plus the fact there is no cut off point on the last day.
All overs must be bowled if needed.
So 98 overs for 210…a doddle if not bowled out.

Amazing finish.
Nine down as I type.
Seven needed.
Two needed!
What chance a tie?
New Zealand win by one run.
Incredible!
How on earth did they manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory ???

Good question.
Joe Root running out Harri Brook before he had faced did not help.

New Zealand wicketkeeper Tom Blundell has admitted the umpires made a crucial mistake as the second Test against England reached its thrilling conclusion.
The Black Caps became just the second side in history to win a Test by one run, after England’s James Anderson was caught by Blundell down the leg side off Neil Wagner.
But the ball before Anderson was dismissed is under the microscope, with the umpires seemingly missing a wide call that would have levelled the scores.
Wagner bowled a bouncer to Anderson that was not only down the leg-side, but well over the batter’s head, but umpires Rod Tucker and Chris Gaffaney ruled it to be a legal delivery.
Law 22.1.2 says: “the ball will be considered as passing wide of the striker unless it is sufficiently within reach for him/her to be able to hit it with the bat by means of a normal cricket stroke.”
Anderson was visibly disappointed with the call and made it clear at the time he thought it should have been called wide.
Speaking on Newstalk ZB, Blundell conceded the Black Caps enjoyed a stroke of good fortune.
