I think we're going to regret those missed chances. Definitely an opportunity for england to get a grasp back on the urn in this test though, looks like the kind of track trott would have loved really :(

I always thought of Chris Cairns as a straight-up bloke
and he probably is
but then you never know...
who'd have thunk that good Christian, Hansie Cronje, was on the take?

or Salman Butt?


last bit could be considered a sarcastic (smarmy?) denial of stereotype

I think the NZ bowlers are doing enough to get the wickets they need but you never know.

Big up Ryan Harris (batting at 10!) putting 50 runs on the poms too. :lol:

Graeme Smith has all but lost his place in the ODI side since Quinton De Kock's recent run of form.
He's a 20 yr old with some serious talent and will be amazing for SA if he keeps at it.

Smith playing water boy in SA's pink cancer awareness outfit just looks wrong.

^presume that means WI did it?
Seems strange to be playing a test in front of 3 dozen people on a Dunedin paddock.

and
how was Johnson's 7 fer?
Lillee reincarnate or what?
When's Kevin stepping up? Seems disinterested.
Pom bowlers are trying hard but it seems like the pendulum is swinging back
probably because the Australian team includes very experienced players again,
including new guys like Rogers & Bailey (& Lehmann).

Pieterson batting, being distracted by flies.

Anybody on here still claiming to be English?
WI saved by the weather then. As commentators are saying: they can't expect to win with 2 bowlers unless kiwi batting collapses.
