    England drop Leach for Chris Woakes, they now have 5 seamers. Strengthens their batting too. Pope will keep. This is his fifth first class game keeping wicket.

    I probably would have preferred Ferg over Henry, but I get why Henry is preferred. Ferg has never lead a black caps attack and he's best eased in to test cricket as a 3/4 option. That said, Ferg is likely to be very effective in Aus.

              Kane better step up a bit, or he'll be carrying the drinks in Australia. We're too good to just be carrying people these days

                  Absolutely. I would love to see his getting it right/wrong ratio

                    Black Caps should be reasonably happy getting to 86/2 at lunch, after being put in and losing 2 early wickets.
                    Hopefully one or both of these two go on and make a big score.

                      Kane's was a really nice piece of bowling.

                      Jeet, on the other hand, will be kicking himself. He started driving at the ball that over, and just gave up on occupying. Tell ya what, I'd take 50/1 at lunch over 82/2 any day. So frustrating.

                        I know many don't like him, but really neat interview with Ian Smith just on sky UK, was it on in NZ too?

                          Don’t understand why people wouldn’t like Smithy, he’s a brilliant, knowledgeable commentator. I always enjoy listening to him.

                              @Gunner was interesting to hear him say about how he's never felt completely comfortable doing the rugby, mostly due to never having laced up at that high a level.

                                Smith was in front of the camera before play with Doull and Atherton. As a former work colleague of mine would say, he has been grazing in a good paddock. :astonished_face:

                                    @Bones Of course we know he likes the pies. It was more that we tend to hear Smith watching sport, rather than see him.

                                      I'm really struggling to understand how they can overturn that decision. It helps us but that knick was after it had passed the bat

                                        @Hooroo There was the tiniest of white spots on the bat that wasn't there before the ball passed. Weird how the snick was between frames though.
