Broad destroying NZ 

Great 3 days of cricket so Far. Should wrap it up tomorrow.👍

63 for 5. Wow.

This team worries me, it feels that it could fall apart at any time, but rarely does!

Let’s hope it doesn’t start in summer.

We'll miss Jimmy when he finally goes. We have some good bowlers coming through, but there has to be some pain when a world class player like Jimmy goes. Broad won't be far behind him.

Jimmy wraps it up.....

Cheers for that. Good to see it wrapped up. Poor crowds in NZ. Shame. Missing out on some historic moments!

Crowds weren't too bad for a small nation at the beginning TBF but I don't think we can blame them for not turning up this morning given England's overnight position - sure enough it was wrapped up in one session.

Strong representation of Bolton flags. I’ll let @BobyBrnoshare the pics if he wishes to 👍🏻

It is quite an odd feeling

It's as if it's too good to be true and we're in for a reality check

There aren't any signs of it coming though

I see Australia are continuing to go well... 😁

Plenty of top players on the sidelines, certain players can perform better and…..Crawley!

While there are several talented bowlers on the rise, losing a player of Jimmy's calibre must be difficult. Broad won't lag behind him by much.

All time great in our time

Legend of the game. Needs to keep fit to pass Warne.

From the Jimmy Anderson end

Could be one of those days, here

I see Crawley's done well again...

 

240 could be a good score

Brook is looking a fine player again. 
 

 

He's going to be a good'un for sure

 

Another amazing day, not expecting anything like this at 21-3
