Mitchell now with a better average than Conway and Williamson (will obviously drop if dismissed).

Bracewell looks like he has a decent technique and a few shots. Pretty much an anti Rory Burns as a lefthander.

So what's the highest total conceded after inviting your opponents to bat first? My best bets about England conceding 600 in those situations didn't quite work out, as England batted first before SL made 600+ in the 3rd test in 2003, and Aus won the toss before scoring 600+ at Nottingham in 1989.
EDIT
Here we are. It just took a while. I have no idea whether it's the highest ever, but it is 600+

Don't throw it away boys, I'm hoping Stokes is going to outdo Hutton for runs conceded after inviting your opponents to bat first. And there's no rush. We all know it will look very different when England are batting.

More of a part-timer with the ball, but working on it. Captains a 1st class side in NZ and bowls himself quite a lot. Quite a graceful left hander who can hit the ball a long way (as can Mitchell and all the NZ bowlers).

Haha this is great for New Zealand I reckon, bit of moisture just before it’s their turn to bowl.

At least, there's no Piers Morgan in this documentary.

Yeah, it might make timing of the declaration slightly harder to call. My original prediction of 5.00pm could be trumped by NZ wanting to bowl before the post-rain moisture has dried out.
