Big game between NZ and England Friday, but I have split loyalties. Been here 13 years now and I love cricket, seen every major nation play NZ at least once. When you see a team play over a long period of time you begin to emotionally invest in the players. Being English I am torn, half the English squad I am unfamiliar with and they are pap at one day, where as the Black Caps have a real chance. Heart says NZ mind thinks I should want England.
Personally i think England will win this one, we don't have that Aussie phobia going on with the players. Don't get e wrong, i think the black caps are a better one day team than us, but i reckon on the day we'll turn it on.
PS, never heard of a Bramley Sunnyside lad supporting a foreign team before...
Just enjoy it Pal, I dont think England will win we have a losing mentality No, dont beat yourself up, its no fun supporting a pi55 poor team with very little chance of progressing.
