UK reaction: 'Outrageous' Ross Taylor effort defeats 'headless chickens' EnglandSTUFFLike the English team themselves, the UK media were wondering how this match was lost. England were labelled "headless chickens" and Ross Taylor hailed for "an innings of a lifetime" as the British media digested the Black Caps remarkable one-day win in Dunedin. The injured Taylor battled to an unbeaten 181 on Wednesday evening as New Zealand chased down England's imposing 335-9 with a last over victory to square the series at 2-2. The Guardian newspaper's report started: "Rarely will you see a more valiant, match-winning knock than the one played by Ross Taylor. Whether Taylor, who was limping heavily by the time he carried New Zealand home in the gloaming, is there, remains to be seen.
