He'll surely get to that milestone in this match, won't he?

Will he beat Botham's 383 wickets, bearing in mind that he's 30 years old now and probably only has two years left?

Not got so many over the winter so fingers crossed for this test. Big Big 12 months coming up with Aussies back to back, needs to be somewhere around the 340 mark this time next year to be in with a good chance. I would hope he will be around another 3-4 years, this England set up seems on the ball managing workload and rest.

'this England set up seems on the ball managing workload and rest.'

Yes that's very true Nick, they do get better rest periods.

Jimmy's just had a few niggly injuries of late which hopefully won't end up being a concern over the next few years.

Three wickets taken in the morning session, our Jimmy only got one of them.

Still four short of the magic 300 club.

New Zealand 312/4 at dinner (don't give me that bloody southern 'lunch' crap)

Jimmy will torture the Aussies in English conditions next year, no doubt whatsoever. He's absolute class and fitness permitting will pass Beefy's record no problem.

Evening Hip Priest.

It 'should' be the easiest Ashes win ever. Unfortunately we are called England and hard work is the way.

How can we be so sh1te against a team like New Zealand. It does my head in. When the Aussies were top of the pile for years they were totally ruthless,just used to steamroller everybody and were totally professional. For once we have a half decent team but unless it's the Aussies or South Africa we seem to assume that all we have to do is turn up to win. New Zealand, bloody New Zealand!

Compared to previous decades, and compared to other nations we play far too many international tests which are interspersed with T20, one-dayers etc - which there never used to be! If anything, like Australia dn India and some other nations we should basically have 2 teams - the Test players and the the ones who do the rest - as has been shown many times there are some who are great as Test players but useless at the others and vice versa.

20 overs to go, 3 wickets left. Can we do it. Been a great effort today and Bell and Prior have been real heroes. Trying real hard not to get my hopes up 'cos you know what England are like. Should have gone to bed 2 hours ago,work in t' morning but this is gripping stuff. Broad has faced about 40 balls and is still on 0 not out. Come on England.

BOTH batsmen have faced deliveries which have hit the stumps but not removed the bails. INCREDIBLE! This must be England's day. Six overs to go. We're going to escape the embarrassment and ignominy of being beaten by New Zealand.

New Zealand have been brilliant and deserved to win this test match easily. We have been sh1t and deserve nothing but it has to be said we did incredibly well today to get a draw out of this from being 90-4 last night.
