Long, long ago in the summer of 1973 - Life on Mars year - the first side to tour England was New Zealand. We cricket fans looked forward in particular to seeing their aggressive new opening batsman Rodney Redmond . He had played his first test against Pakistan the previous winter and scored 107 and 56 in his two innings. As it turned out, Redmond had trouble adjusting to his new contact...

"We talked about what we learned from [Kevin] Pietersen's innings, he tried to present a full face and we felt that was the best strategy to play straight, and we had two guys [Aaron Redmond and Brendon McCullum] play across the line in the first 10 overs and have their off pole pulled out of the ground ... you can put all the plans in place, but then who applies them?"

... away at the last moment - like the devastating curve balls with which Anderson clean bowled Aaron Redmond and Brendon McCullum on Friday. They make decent batsmen look like novices, and give the bowler a feeling of total exhilaration. Therefore you strive to bowl them again and again, with dispiritingly hittable results. It is like a fleeting encounter with a beautiful woman, whom...

We have been trying, in the press box, to find bowlers from the past who performed like James Anderson. He is capable of bowling superbly - the first two dismissals on Friday were such deliveries; fast enough, perfect in length and line, swinging very late. Batsmen Aaron Redmond and Brendon McCullum, thinking that runs were to be had through the leg-side, opened themselves to play the...

... attack here may all retain their places for the opening Test there against South Africa. When Aaron Redmond, Jamie How and Ross Taylor all fell to the swinging ball inside 90 minutes of the follow-on, England would have had no doubts that they had done the right thing. But the move didn’t look so clever when McCullum and Flynn had taken root. Memories of the difficulties England got...
