        Geez we're a harsh bunch.

        CDGH has pretty much gone from being a gutsy bloke making the most of his talents to a waste of space in a single season....

          @mn5 I’m harsh on anyone who bowls a no ball.

          There is no bloody need for any of them to even go close to bowling one! Southee lands miles behind the line most of the time and he seems to go ok!

            The point is that a bowler running in at CdG's pace shouldn't be overstepping. It's not the first time it has cost him a wicket either.

                So Wags eventually gets the 4th. Karunaratne strangled to BJ.

                Matthews on 60ish, Chandimal 1.

                Need to break this partnership.

                    274/8 honours even I reckon. The BCs probably expected to knock them over when they walked out after lunch

                    Now 275/9 at stumps. A little morale booster wicket at the death for boult

                      Weird old day - Sri Lanka looked mostly poor, we looked mostly good with the ball (aside form Boult who looks injured or knackered) yet somehow NZ come out at evens.

                        Raval and Latham seem to have forgotten they are decent players and reverted to the 'shit opener' Black Cap stereotype. Both owe the team some runs so KW and Rossco can put the feet up for a bit.

                          They're like judder bars on the way to our middle order at the moment. It's one thing to get a peach but too often they get themselves out

                            As a Black Caps fan, I sometimes feel like a bloody Labrador. So optimistic of the world

                            (pants) this time is different

                            (tongue out) Jeets and Lath will do it this time for sure

                              Missed the whole day due to kids birthday parties, but was disappointed to see we chose to bowl first. Fast bowlers with too much influence. IMO Sri Lanka are ahead at the moment, we will need 400+ in our first dig to avoid having to chase a tricky total in the 4th innings.

                                    Four straight tests have been won by the team bowling first at the basin. The pitch will flatten out but unlikely to take spin so any fourth innings target won't be tricky.

                                    Bangladesh scored 500 batting first here last summer and we still ran them down.

                                      Was a good choice at 9 for 3.

                                        Just watched the Day 1 highlights. Great spells by Southee, Watling is very tidy behind the stumps, super catch by Nicholls, appalling no ball by CdG, and errrr what has happened to Boult?

                                          Timmy wraps up the SL innings for 282 with his 6th wicket.

                                          Good chance here for our openers to find some form.
                                          I’ll be disappointed with anything less than 350.
