Wheels are coming off now, but looked like a terrible decision for Robinson. Caught behind off his upper leg? Viewing it in slow motion certainly doesn't look anywhere near the bat.

EDIT: Yeah. The more I view that dismissal (albeit in youtube pixellated tones) the worse it looks.

That scorecard entry will surely be changed to an lbw verdict (albeit a very rough one) at the tea break.

Haha. Maybe. Pretty clearly not an Lbw either as you say.

Not the smartest shot from Johns there. Wellington have gone from looking to construct a pretty sizeable lead when Vishvaka and Johnson were at the crease to struggling to a lead of 50. It's looked to me like the sort of wicket you have to be patient to score runs. Pitch doesn't seem to be doing anything excessive.

In his first innings behind the stumps this new BJ has already grabbed one fifth of the number of stumpings that his predecessor bagged in his entire career.

Yes I told him recently the feeling on CW was that his 40+ first-class average was a little bit fake, and he went as low as the eighth round of our draft. He got pretty fired up.
I think I've picked him a few years in a row cos he's good value in the draft

They say Finn Allen could celebrate by hiring hackers to dox my personal details if he ever gets on a Plunket Shield hot streak like Tom Bruce has been on.

I actually look forward to it though. I start to play the self-sufficient rogue and uncompromising villain on a cricket-themed drama show. Frankie Mackay understands the persuasive sway that a bit of dramatic media has over female hearts and minds and she aggressively funds these things when she becomes NZC's new CEO.

Starring Kippax as the callous bubble-bursting vampire Spike, Heef as the ardent leftist Guardian-reading guardian and school librarian, Athlai as Xander (a luckless cellar dweller), Melie Kerr as Buffy and Frankie Mackay as Willow.

To be honest, with the way you talk I always picked you as more of a Dru than a Spike. Also you forgot Flem as the self-aggrandizing drama queen Cordelia and NZT as Angel, the repentant Australian with a soul.

heh, initially wondered if the camera angle made me miss seeing an under-edge, but no that really was an lbw call going a foot over the stumps

Yeah. I re-looked at that today on monitor rather than phone, as I wondered (on small screen) if it was a kiss the gloves while trying to leave it. But .... no.
See it is recorded as LBW on the scorecard now, rather than caught.
