Memo England: this is how you do it against the minnows of world cricket.
Of course, the Poms don’t have a certain bandana-loving run machine to score a breezy 31, and the soon-to-be New South Welshman Brendan McCullum who put on 51 runs in three overs in partnership with Ryder.
Funny old match though. I never knew Twenty20 games could be shortened due to rain. I mean, once the weather cleared, surely they could have just played for another hour or so and finished off the match properly?
I mean, this hardly counts as a game of cricket, does it? I’ve seen Year 4 kids get through more over than this at recess.
Still, a win is a win. Next up is South Africa.

Playing for another hour would have delayed Australia’s match. We might have played worse cricket, but how can you possibly suggest a NZ game should delay an Aussie one?

The Aussies might have played worse cricket, eh? Not sure that would be possible in the slightest.
