That’s it, I'm out of the office, en route to ‘enjoy’ a uniquely English assault on the senses. The concussive stiff suspension of a rail replacement bus service; the heady herbal smell of hops, yeast and barley; the culturally appropriated fusion of a chicken balti pie, a large green field, a blue sky (hopefully), and best of all, the satisfying thwack of leather on willow. #ENGvNZ #iT20 #cricket
I think Conway got done there. Looked like a clear gap between bat and ball. I have always distrusted snicko by itself, whatever happened to UltraEdge?
From this armchair perspective, the problem with the @AllBlacks is they don't know how to not lose.
They all come from an era of such dominance that they don't know what to do when there is 10 to go and the game is tight.

England don't know what their best team is. They were awful. And then they were brilliant. #ENGvNZ
Vunipola has been terrible. Itoje has been anonymous. Farrell has done nothing. #ENGvNZ
New Zealand are just far better up front today. England are terrible. The refereeing is still atrocious. #ENGvNZ
