Has there ever been a 4-4 in the World Cup?

Easy for the Dutch. Sweden have nothing if you keep Gyokeres and Isak quiet.

Czechia informally, Czech Republic formally. Italy and Germany are their anglicised names.

What a disgusting appeal Absolute waste. Root's foot was so far out even if no shot was offered. That's on about 5th/6th stump

As unlikely as it is, you need these two still in at the end of the day. Root can help tire bowlers out on what will be a hot day tomorrow. Duckett is a liability out of the two. The bowlers are dominant now.

Great start for NZ...

That's their official name since 2022.

I think it'll be get to 500 lead and declare.

Agreed. Such recent experience helps with explaining and analysing the modern game.

Well on Cracking strike.

What a strike, if he's onside it's a great goal.

Love how the doctor comes on with no bag or equipment. Just fancied a chat

Air shot from Souttar. So bad.

You just know that there'll be some USA fans genuinely thinking they'll win the World Cup because they've beaten two mediocre sides in the group stages.

Old Trafford last summer vs India.

Big breakthrough that.

When do we riot against crocodiles?

Get them out for under 200 will be good.

Yeah he got hit on the helmet twice in quick succession amongst some general short stand. Now that is the mockers 291ao. Great resilience from Fisher there though.

I've never seen this before

Didn't they do it to Jamieson first?

I can't believe they changed their whole approach based on that ball.

Wait til the club try and hype up a home game in the Football League Trophy in November on social media

Tail still sticking around but on this pitch you'd have liked to be much closer to NZ total.
