    Still trying to get my head around a NZ Cricket test starting at 2pm. It's confusing for an old tradionalist like me.

    @mn5 yeah as soon as we reached stumps I was wishing we could resume in the morning. But it was pretty cool to be watching local test cricket at 9pm. If we'd been getting shat on I may have felt differently tho!

      Think will be rain on and off today and tomorrow pretty much washed out. Sunday and Monday much better

      Jumped on the draw at $8.50 yesterday when England were 8 down. Will happily lose my money but also want something in return if the weather gods steal away a famous NZ victory

        @jk at the ground now getting ribs. Windy but blue skies. Mildly warm. Plenty of play in store I hope.

            There is rain around but hopefully stays away. Anyone know what happens to pink balls in the wet? That's a serious question by the way...

              All going well it'll make our bowlers quicker than Brett Lee while spinning it more than Murali all at the same time.

                            I looked at the draw pretty seriously. But Eden Park has such good drainage I can’t see there not being a result in this game

                              Drainage wont be the issue. Its that grass stays wet in the late session. Lights wont dry it. Its measly $25 anyway. Happy to take a wee punt.

                                    18 test 100s at an average of 51. If he hadn't already, he is now cemented in the record books as NZs GOAT batsmen. What a privilege it is to see him play in his prime.

                                          Quite special to have been able to watch two world class Kiwi batsmen in Martin Crowe and Kane Williamson in the last 35-odd years. Two of our greatest.
