Black Caps v Pakistan

[Godder]

0/2, Southee and Boult 1 each. Can't fault the declaration currently!

[canefan]

Boult and Southee have wicket each, Pakistan 0-2. 3 wickets might be an underestimate

[Donsteppa]

Thought the declaration was half an hour and 40 or so runs early, but it may not matter if everyone bats like the openers.

[No Quarter]

Really awesome to see Southee go past 300. He's been superb in the test arena.

[Gunner]

On ya Timmy boy!

[ARHS]

Well done Timmy. Took ground announcer ages to tell the crowd while many waited the standing ovation. Made up for the misfields earlier in the over huh Timmy

[canefan]

Has fawad been reading Steve Smith's book on batting technique? And what is with all these guys copying the Smith/Labuschagne ball leaving quirk? Shouldn't be copying off those dicks. Even Kane was doing it

[KiwiMurph]

Typical left arm friendly from Santner.

[Godder]

Pakistan 71/3 at stumps.

Nothing like Smith/ Labuschagne.

His is a Chandrapaul replica.

I'm sure I saw Manus doing that stunt last year when we were touring. I expect he copied too

[booboo]

Any ferner that doesn’t gets banned

[dogmeat]

@booboo Even Ms DM has learned to say "we luvz Wags" and she doesn't even know who the fuck he is. Cricket on radio - we luvz wags.

[canefan]

I'm not near a TV. Anyone report on how the pitch is playing? Do we look likely right now? Gonna be a long day

[Crazy Horse]

@canefan the pitch is looking fairly dead with maybe the odd one keeping a bit low. Pakistan holding out well so far. We probably need Satnav to step up.

[Donsteppa]

Pitch seems to be playing fairly true.

Santner looks about as threatening as a sofa. And now has an injury to his bowling hand...

He's made a few good plays, but as a bowler is concerned Mitch is a waste of space
