0INew Zealand- ukubuyisa umoya weqakamba e-England

Eli hlobo lehlobo lihlobo lomlotha ehlotyeni. Uthuthu olu ngoku lutywinwe ngokugqibeleleyo kwinkoliseko yaseNgilani. Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba siqhubeke sonwabele olo loyiso, Ndingathanda ukuthatha imizuzu embalwa ukuba sijonga emva 2 luthotho New Zealand.

Eng­land began to show signs of some recov­ery in New Zea­l­and with a 1–1 draw against a very good New Zea­l­and side. More of interest though was the home series at the start of this sum­mer where Eng­land showed that they had transitioned from a side with a defens­ive neg­at­ive approach to a side full of tal­ent and attack­ing flair. In this they seemed to imit­ate the style of their oppon­ents, and per­haps some of the great sports­man­ship shown by the New Zeal­anders rubbed off onto Eng­land at the same time. Gone were con­tro­ver­sies over DRS, play­ers not walk­ing, okanye, god for­bid, any ama­teur box­ing in bars. All the talk was about the qual­ity and excite­ment of the game on the pitch! What a refresh­ing start to the sum­mer. We should have known then that the sum­mer was to be a good one.

So a big thank you and con­grat­u­la­tions to New Zea­l­and for being such a pos­it­ive, enter­tain­ing and sport­ing side. Aus­tralia take note — you have a mod­el for your future con­duct in your anti­podean neighbour!
