Who the **** has this on radio? Nzc says today fm but it's just the ****in news.

 

[Chubb]

If and when Nathan Smith dismisses Zak Crawley it will become my favourite moment in the entire history of cricket.

 

[jcas0167]

Just told that Smith goes out with Melie Kerr.

 

[Jarquis]

I could be well of the mark here but would six overseas born players be close to the record for a Test match?

 

[kevinw]

Good to hear that Gower is on the broadcast.

 

[Qlder]

So Jacob Bethall is the new #3 for England while Ollie Pope is keeper batting #6. How did this happen

 

[TT Boy]

Catch.

 

[GIMH]

Well that is spectacular

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Decent start

 

[kevinw]

I am very glad he didn't get an IPL deal. Keep him fit for tests.

We have had this discussion many times before, I think England had about 8 in the early 90s.

 

[thierry henry]

Jeez that was pretty loose from (the now perma-cooked?) Conway

 

[thierry henry]

Atkinson military medium so far

 

[Molehill]

Not entirely convinced this was a bowl first pitch.

 

[ataraxia]

They're bowling loose at Latham to get him into the lose-his-wicket-out-of-nowhere zone ASAP. Genius.

 

[hendrix]

You just know this is one of those teasing Latham innings where he looks a million dollars then gets out on a nothing shot for 37

 

[Bahnz]

Not entirely convinced this was a bowl first pitch.

Hagley's pretty much always a bowl first pitch because with all the grass it doesn't break up, and instead just gradually eases in pace.

Martin McCague was gr8 m8.

EDIT: Bugger. He was born in Northern Ireland. Just grew up in Australia. Eesh.

 

[ataraxia]

Why is the camera zoom so much that we can't even see the ball reach second slip?

This happens everywhere now, so often you miss slip catches. A real pet peeve of mine.
