Wood is their Wags. I'm not sure they'd want to swap
He is more of a conventional first change out and out pace bowler no? Wood isn't bowling 15 over spells and you aren't brining Wagner on to blow through the tail. Wood is closer to a better version of Henry.

so I broke down and signed up with Spark - must say despite being purely wireless, being able to watch in 1080p on my budget 24" monitor connected to a 10 year old laptop has actually worked very nicely so far. I'll make a final decision when this test ends but it's actually easier watching tests in England live than domestically.

Kane really is a great "leaver" isn't he?
Thoughts on who is/was better at that?
He hits the ball so damn late. There was one delivery where he seemed to hit it so late it was about to hit the stumps. One of the fielders looked quite perplexed

@canefan Nasser did a great analysis highlighting a small "box" where he keeps his hands. Never goes outside the box essentially when defending. Look at his hands and how far they move from his body and you'll quickly see his point, well made.

I blame you for that.

Hey! I didn't actually say he was playing awesome. Nasser mentioned that Anderson has gotten Kane 6 times in the past, and his average of around 30 in England is the lowest he has in any of the test nations.

Oh dear gawd, it looks like we may have a repeat of the incompetence of the Australian Tour non-selection of Southee: Boult has said he will be available for the second test but the imbecile who is our current coach (A real Buggin's Turn appointment if ever there was) has stated that Boult is unavailable and won't be selected. Can someone please put Gary Stead out of our collective misery please?

Conway debut half century. Excellent stuff. Looks very assured out there.

It's a miracle the players put up with him at all
