@majorrage tomorrow! In the media center box as well woo

If you have the opportunity can you a) arrange for Gary stead to have an unfortunate accident on any steps b) get one of the journos there to really go after him about his mixed signals on selection and link it back to the Aussie tour fuckup

144/3 at tea. Very slow over rate. England probably happier of the two teams.

Devon Conway makes a Century in his debut test at Lords.

[sparky]

Black caps 200-3

The Daily Mail have found some racist and sexist tweets by Ollie Robinson (from 9 years ago when he was 18) that the ECB won't be happy about:

England have taken the 2nd new ball. 233-3

[TeWaio]

at 132* Conway has highest debutant score at Lords ever, well done that man

[sparky]

Close of play. NZ 246-3. Conway 136*

Is this the least surprising debut century in NZ test history? Has to be .

[sparky]

Grafting, controlling, calm innings by Conway. Played the situation wonderfully.

Latham, Williamson and Taylor all got in, never got in their groove, then got out.

Wonderful Conway. Welcome to test cricket.

Robinson apologises for racist and sexist tweets:

It's official. Devon Conway is a run scoring machine at all levels in all forms of the game

A ton at Lords is a fairly decent way to start a test career I have to say

[Siam]

It's a funny old thing to awake bleary eyed and fumble fingers on the cricinfo app. You're never quite sure how your day will start🙂

Well done lads, couldn't really have asked for more.

[Machpants]

So we've won the final, right?

Thank god cancel culture found something to moan about. How convenient it emerges right when he’s making his test debut.

Rip up his contract instantly.

@Virgil fucken aye, way to ruin what would be an otherwise immensely proud moment for him and his family. fluffybunnies. If we were famous sportspeople I’m sure all they’d need to do was find some of our dumber posts on here to be fair. We’d be doomed.
