Black Caps v England Test series

@kiwipie Kyle Jamieson is going to be annoyed - he's got a century against England, but his highest first class score remains 40*!
He's an interesting prospect - disturbingly he's listed on Cricinfo as right arm medium, but I think he's quicker than that - google says he can bowl at 135kms.
Most interestingly, he's the same height as Sam Whitelock, so if they can find another 5+ kms in him, he might be very awkward!

He's an extremely promising bowler.
130ish kph would be his current limit.
The seam bowling depth in NZ is the best I have ever seen it, by a distance. I'd say there are about a dozen international quality seam bowlers in NZ at the moment.
Although Jamieson would be the only one of those dozen or so I'd see as a likely lad for success in a 3rd (or 4th) seamer role.

that looks a lot like a pictorial representation of my stories for the boys on a Monday after the weekend during my early 20s

What' the weather like in Auckland today?
I'm imagining we're going to lose a fair bit of time in this test match - what can we expect playing test cricket in late-March/early-April!

Hot.

@virgil Hot and dry or hot and wet ("nice if you're with a lady but no good in the jungle!")?
@chris-b it's Auckland, there will be moisture, and not the good kind.

Hot and dry, I’m north in silverdale but it’s a lovely day in New Zealand’s great city, the playground to stars like Barrack Obama and Max Key

I'm giving this an upvote for some wit in the last sentence.
