First Test NZ v Eng

<b>New Zealand 1st Innings:</b> 427 - 8 (declared)

<b>England 1st Innings:</b> 58 all out
<b>England 2nd Innings:</b> 320 all out

New Zealand win by an innings and 49 runs.
 
Yesterday I though we had a chance at nicking the draw. Possibly the NZ had batted too long before declaring. Wrong. They just don't know how to dig in and save their wickets. Time after time prodding and slashing at balls they could leave. Too much limited overs skills that don't apply in a 5 day game.
 
Stokes did well, but then to get out to a horrendous slash. Aaargh, so frustrating!! :wall:
