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

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:

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.

It looked as though that spot was there before the ball reached the bat. I may be wrong but

@Hooroo I couldn't see it before the ball.
@booboo Taylor took a punt on a review for lbw thinking it may have gone down leg. Overturned due to seemingly the slightest of snicks. Doull now saying it was his spikes scraping the ground.
I couldn't see any difference on the bat to before the ball went past it.

173/3 at tea, happy with that given we were put in.
Shame Roscoe fell straight after reaching 50 -
At the risk of the jinx, Latham is a bloody special player. He's almost certain to be our best ever test opener by the end of his career (excluding Dempster) , and is possibly there already.
But what really stands out to me is that about two or three years ago when the South Africans were here, he was in a real deep trough form wise, and I can remember watching him gradually pulling back, filing off his edges and getting back into form, particularly around reducing the balls he was flashing at outside off stump.
It was a fantastic display of self awareness and discipline and convinced me that he had what it would take to excel as a test cricketer.
