00:00 England failed to see out a dominant 3-0 win in the T20 series when they hosted New Zealand at Edgbaston.
00:09 However, the impact the stadium has on international teams is very significant and never fails to impress.
00:17 We were against the wall but they still carry on chanting and enjoying the time.
00:21 Yeah, we didn't give them much to chant about today so it's a little bit challenging for them.
00:26 But they were starting to liven up this afternoon, weren't they? Once the sun had really taken effect and a few other things I'm sure.
00:32 But I've seen it on many occasions. We know how lively it can get here when England play well.
00:38 And during the Ashes in particular it was one of the liveliest games so we know what we're going to get when we come here.
00:46 Another international ticked off at Edgbaston with the electric atmosphere and the diverse audience once again leaving its mark on players at the top level of the game.
00:58 Thank you.
