That is quite an orgy.

In Vettori's statistical defence, there can be few worse places to be a left-arm-orthodox spinner than NZ greentops, and he plays about half his tests on them.

He's better looking than Jesus, too.

Does this thread need resurrecting? The bespectacled one has bowled quite superbly in this innings.

England really seems to struggle against half decent spinners. Even SA doesn't seem to find Vettori that threatening.

Irony is that Vettori was non-existant in the NZ series down under

That's not irony, Lever, that's the natural order of things.

Last six Anglo-NZ tests: 5-1 to the Engerlund.
Vettori = Ashley Giles with slightly better batting. Except Ash had a good series in Pakistan and Drooper never has.
... sanctimonious AND crap!
