300 up for 4 is good, but as @Donsteppa says we have a long tail so these two need to push on
Yeah Wagner would be 8 out of that lot I think.

Right at the moment, BJ Watling (37.89) has just the 10th highest batting average of NZ players on this tour.
Behind, Conway, Mitchell, Williamson, Jamieson, Taylor, Nicholls, Young, Latham, and Blundell.
Another cross through Santners name if our coach had half a brain.

Of the 25 players Cricinfo lists as current England players only Root and Ollie Robinson have batting averages higher than BJ.
Ben Stokes is only a few decimal places behind.
Which backs up what I said about us being a much better team.
I will admit that some of our guys with inflated records are pretty early in their careers although this doesn’t take away from the fact that England are full of bog standard test cricketers.

Fuck. Time to shine son of John….
I have a feeling you and your positive attitude are somehow to blame for this.
We’re leading with wickets in hand. Quit complaining.

Okay, I'm going to be a Grumpy Old FluffyBunny... I'm not cool with sponsorship on the white Test-kit.
I don't know why, it just seems wrong.Seeing the NZ guys with the "anz" - I felt "ugh. yuck"
But then a second later seeing a pom, with whatever they've got - I felt "yeah... nah, fuck, yuck" -
Pretty even session. England will be happy to have gotten Ross and Nichols, but they still have some work to do.
We really need these two to knuckle down. There's no rush, just need to bat time. Henry is in next so early wickets next session will bring England right back into it.
Intriguing test so far. Bed time for me, hope to wake up to 80 for Blundell and 80 for Mitchell.

I am extremely grumpy.
I wouldn't say senile, but...
Edit... I had something... -

80 is the new 100
