An absolute half track pie bowls Blundell after pressure earlier in the over
Opportunity lost for Blundell. And so the collapse begins....

O Ye of little faith!!!!
Given this is the last day of my holidays and I’ve done three hours work in the garden this morning I’m ready (and allowed justifiably so) to settle in and watch the BCs step up and bat out a solid day!!!!
Are we still only one down

Yes, somewhat surprisingly Raval has now hit double figures.

Not a great review, looked plumb live.
-
FFS, Latham now spoons one to mid on.
That right here is the difference between the 2 sides, they don’t give their wickets away like that, and they don’t lose wickets back to back, especially not both set batsmen.
We’re in a world of hurt all of a sudden.

Laws clearly state, no bandaging or tape on bowling hand. Will the sportsmanship team NZ let him tape it?
I fkn hope not!

We are too generous.
Chance to get him out of the game or at the very least to make him take it off so its harder for him, but no.

If we can’t put 300 up on this surface, then I think we know where this team is at.
NB: Auckland has turned this weird dull orange. Sun behind clouds with fire particles you presume.

It shouldn't be up to us. It's either allowed or it's not. Umpires should make the call.

No. Not every game of cricket is played with professional umpires. Having a clear ruling on taped up bowling hands is far more effective.
Much more logical to give the receivers of a taped up hand deciding it's use.
Don't likeit? tough, take the bandage off then -
Would have liked Raval and Latham to press on a while longer, do not like when we lose multiple wickets in a short amount of time. Add to that, Phillips was bloody lucky not to be the third. But we got a solid start, at least. I'm liking Blundell in the opener role.
I have very high expectations of NZA. 300 runs on the board at least.

What would Aus do? It's not allowed, so tell him to take it off. It is effectively cheating - again.

@kev same here just south of Whangarei
Half way between, and the same. It is like a high level smog that is changing the light and it is starting to smell a bit smokey in a sort of drizzle. Not normal.
