How did the Black Caps ruin Ben Stokes’ retirement party at Trent Bridge?
Catch!
fitting way to end this series it's Nathan Smith who has taken more wickets than any other Kiwi in the series and a fine low catch to back up and complete a wonderful performance in the field it is a famous victory for Tom Latham and his men and for England basketball dies where it all began
Live from the Export Beer Garden Studios. It's a great morning. This is the agenda for Tuesday, the 30th of June.
The Agenda Podcast. The home of sporting nonsense and claptrap. Brought to you by Export Ultra.
And coming to us live from Mud Island itself, James McConey. Why aren't you up in Nottingham? Why aren't you up in Nottingham going to a, you know, getting in a fight with Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson?
I know, what a night it will be in Nottingham. Just waiting for Son of a Mitch or Ratchin to flick me a text. Still waiting. It's only 10 past 10 at night here. You know, in that audio that you played, I've just flown in from Canada, so I had to go and have a nap. And I reckon while I was napping, they took about, what, four wickets? And boom, it was over.
Yeah. Is that right? It was good. I mean, it was a little bit of resistance there from Smith, the keeper. He got 60-odd. Gus Atkinson hung around. He got 19 off 70 balls. So there was a bit of frustration. But then as soon as they got those guys, the run out of Root, direct hit from Harry Nipps. Everything went so well. But just I've still got a bitter taste in my mouth, James McConey, and that bitter taste has a tinge to it. And that is Ben Stokes on day four pulling focus on a test match that they were always behind the eight ball. And I don't know. I think it's taken the gloss off a little bit. I'm glad. I hope New Zealand partied hard. I hope apparently their team song was heard reverberating around an empty Trent Bridge late into the evening.
I hope they really tore one because I feel like it was the most unusual, bizarre two days thanks to Ben Stokes.
I mean, look, it did seem a little bit narcissistic, but I sort of get it that when, you know, your time is up, you just decide, you know, some people want to announce it immediately. I mean, Kane announced it mid-series. It's not as bad as mid-game, though.
But it was mid-game, like middle of a day four. It wasn't even the start of play or the end of play.
I mean, he's got inner demons, doesn't he, Ben Stokes? There's a lot of demons. I mean, the weird thing about cricket is there's that age, isn't there, where it's one of the few sports that... You know how medical science is allowing LeBron to play and Ronaldo and Messi and Tom Brady past 40 and all that sort of stuff, even though Messi's younger than 40? But in cricket, it doesn't quite work because your eyes... Science hasn't worked out how to help you face fast bowling. You know what I mean? Yeah. As an older person. So cricket, that's why it is actually one of the great sports that has changed the least. You know, they're still using a leather ball that's stitched together. They're still using willow.
Even the bats are the one thing they're a little bit different. But everything else, even keeping the five-day test, it's a beautiful thing. And like, who was saying that? Was that Atherton at the end there? Yep. That was Athers? Yeah. Yeah, I think that he was pretty much, the way he said that was, yeah, I really enjoyed watching New Zealand play this way and can Brendan McCullum please leave now? Is that what he was saying?
That was pretty much it. Yeah, they won by 160 runs in the end. A big player of the match was son of a Mitch, Daryl Mitchell, who I get a feeling, and I think they'll further discuss it on the BYC podcast. I think Dylan Cleaver's got some inside knowledge here. There's not a lot of love between Daryl Mitchell and the English players. Obviously, when he was getting absolutely pelted to the body, I think he took 11 shots to the body. It was one of the second highest shots ever taken in one innings. And not once. Did anyone show any sort of care or ask them if he was all right? Obviously, he's chirping them as well, and he got a good chirping just before that last catch got taken when they were nine down.
