England remain upbeat
WANGANUI. New Zealand, Jan 29: A day after a demoralising Test draw against New Zealand, the England cricket team were today buoyant ahead of their four-day match against New Zealand A starting here Thursday, reports AFP.
England, having seen the chance of a resounding Test win stolen by an unlikely 106-run stand for the final New Zealand wicket, might well be wondering if the fates are against them on their three-month tour.
Their two Tests in Zimbabwe were drawn, although England claimed a moral ascendancy with coach David Lloyd bluntly stating: "we murdered'thcm "
Then, after comfortably winning their two lead-up matches to the first Test in New Zealand, they were poised for a morale boosting win when Nathan Astle and Danny Morrison staged their great escape.
However. Lloyd and captain Mike Atherton made it clear that England would battle away, confident that they were
closing in on their major objective ofTest wins here.
"In the last two Test matches we've seen the winning post and not crossed it. That's life.” Atherton said.
“We won two provincial matches on damp wickets — shoving a side in. bowling well, holding our catches — and we got to the Test match and didn't do that.
"What is important is how we react to their over the next three or four days."
Lloyd wants to see the England players pushing for Test places in Wanganui, with off-spinner Robert Croft, and fastmedium pair Chris Silverwood and Andre Caddick having the best chances to win a recall for the second Test at the Basin Reset ve. starting next Thursday.
"When we get over the disappointment of the first Test we will go on to the next game and be in good heart.' Lloyd said.
The England team won't be named until Thursday morning. but the five players who did not appear in the first Test are sure to play.
They are bowlers Croft. Sil-
verwodd and Caddick. allrounder Ronnie Irani and wicketkeeper Jack Russell.
Irani and Russell will be having their first first-class match on tour.
Wicketkeeper-batsman Alex Stewart, who hit an outstanding 173 in the first Test, but also injured a finger on the first day. is expected to have a game off.
The New Zealand A team, effectively the national second 11 in the New Zealand selectors' eyes, is loaded with players who have strong ambitions of winning national selection.
