The best part of this tour so far is that Perth doesn't get a test.

Have they confirmed where that Test will be played? Tassie were screaming for one

A bit of bidding war going on. Some say Melbourne because they “missed out” on so much and they have the best stadium. Some say Tassie because they haven’t got one. Some (and I reckon Cricket Oz back it) say Adelaide because they want a second day night test and Adelaide have done it well.

Might be good to lose this toss, or am I being sucked in?

A number 3 comes in with a batting average of 28.

Yikes.

England are so “Black Caps circa late 2000s”

Inexperience showed on that. No right playing that ball.

Cummins brings himself on to get Root

Just turned the TV commentary on to see what they are saying and far out Warnie at his superlative best - “this spell could decide the Ashes”

Channel 7. Ponting and Botham actually talking about the cricket taking place in front of them.

I quite like those tests - great timing for NZ viewers

Hazelwood brilliant. On target and Root had no where to go.
