Sounds good. Is ABC radio accessible in any way overseas? Just realized my current cable plan does not include Star Sports 2 who provide the telecast here in India.
You should be able to actually watch it online in India on the StarSports website.

New Zealand's main problem is the lack of firepower in their 3rd and 4th bowlers. Boult and Southee are good, but they are unlikely to get enough support from other bowlers.

Bracewell circa 2011 would have been the ideal first change. In his current avatar he's less penetrative but has gained some accuracy. How well it'll serve him this time around remains to be seen..

Are NZ going to stick with the "third seamers has to bowl bouncers" strategy? I seem to remember Henry doing it in England unless I'm wrong.

Cheers, just checked the Star Sports site and there is a Live Streaming page. Looks promising.
I 'take my computer to India' to watch it sometimes. The quality is absolutely fantastic; only problem is that they sometimes delay their streaming coverage by 2-3 minutes, so following tour threads on CW or checking the scorecard on cricinfo while watching it can lead to slight spoilers. They usually only bother with it for India/IPL games though so it might not even be delayed at all today.

People have been saying this for years and yet NZ keep winning test matches. Just by their presence Southee and Boult tend to lift the threat level of whoever they're bowling with (just as Hadlee did back in the day). Would probably still prefer it if we were playing Wagner tho.

I'm quietly hoping that NZ bat and I get to watch some vintage MJ get the heat going.

Okay, so I think I can stretch myself and commentate the first session. Hit me up if you're interested in joining me.

Is this on tonight?

Been a while since I've watched a Test series from Aus, is it Bresnan or Adelaide that has the ******* timezone?

Heck no. Could see Wagner going at 5's in Australia.
