28, right, well that's about what I'd originally thought TBH. You'd have been 10 in 1990\91, pretty impressive that you remember it with such clarity.
So chalky is a nickname a la Goughy, steds, Fiery, Perm then. Hexcellent.

Oh no, Anderson to bowl at Martin. So that's a two-for for Anderson, which keeps him in the side. :@

Anderson bowling short at Martin, very poor form indeed that. Shocking in fact. No excuse whatsoever for bowling short at someone so useless.

No point, neither. It's that or Anderson really has no control over where he's bowling.

It's bad luck on Christopher's part that he got Jimmy's one fast, straight ball of the Test.

Just hit the bloody stumps.

Looks like Cricket God has punished him with the shame of Martin laying bat on 3 consecutive balls from him. Worse still, a run. No greater shame for a bowler.

Pleased for Martin with his one & as I type Southee desposits Anderson into the stands. Some small justice from the cricketing gods one fancies.

:unsure: Don't agree tbh. As one of the commentators said - that's the game these days. Don't come out in the middle if you can't take it.

There's no provision for that. The laws state everyone must bat. Martin is not your usual rabbit, he's truly hopeless. He can't lay bat on 40mph throwdowns. Just bowl full and straight FFS.

And now Southee whacks another healthy six, and oddly that's Lunch. Shouldn't we play to a finish now?
