Friday, September 10

Well it's not a great day to be a bowler ... if you're American. After containing New Zealand to 205-3 in the first 40 overs, the Yanks astonishingly got smashed for 142 in the last 10, including 95 off the last 4!!! Whoops.

Not a bad start for England v Zimbabwe either. 102-2 off 16, with Solanki again leading the way. Vaughan and Tresco both blazed for a few balls, but it's now up to Strauss and Solanki to set the platform for the main man to come in and clear half of Birmingham!

Rain, stay away, I want to end the season with a proper game!
