Should be an open and shut case, but will convention over-ride common sense?

seen a lot of evidence of the current brains trust being anything but conservative have you?

[KiwiPie]

In other news, Trent Boult has a higher test ranking as an all-rounder than Mitch Santner.

[Hooroo]

Anyone seen the cricket wicket grassy field we are playing on tomorrow?

Apparently they will be moving the cows off at around ten am

[Siam]

Delayed start. Waiting on the toss, bowl first pitch

[Bovidae]

Kohli called incorrectly so NZ will bowl first. No Patel as expected.

[Damo]

That pitch is bloody green. These pitches often look worse than they are, but I would not want to be batting now.

Are our groundsmen taking the piss a bit?

[Damo]

Shaw ran straight down the middle of the pitch for that quick single.

Umpires should be vigilant for that in this first session when the pitch is so green.

[Damo]

Down leg?

Nope. Dummy.

[Godder]

India 85/2 at lunch. They'd be reasonably happy.

[Duluth]

That was a terrible review by Kohli

[Damo]

Jamieson has been bowling quite well. Unlucky with 2 chances. He's not quick but he gets a lot of bounce.

[Chris B.]

That drop by BJ could end up costly. Chance to not quite open up an end, but on the way to it.

[nzzp]

Fark me, I love Neil Wagner. Just tries his guts out, love to see him bowl. Fantastic stuff.

[Virgil]

Michelle for Jamieson!

Stoked for the tall bastard

[Virgil]

current spell of 3 - 1 - 1 - 4

[Mokey]

One might ask why the fark KJ wasn't in Aus when our bowlers dropped like flies.

[Bovidae]

@Mokey He was, just not selected.

A yorker might be a good option, Trent.
