Arghhhhhh that sucks to get run out. Run outs in test cricket are almost criminal...

But in saying that, a nice round 200 on debut does look good on the ol’ resume 😎

Deserved to carry his bat

Bugger, I was hoping he’d carry his bat, but that run never looked good.

Definitely the Legendary Conway and The Muppets show with the bat so far. Honourary mentions to Nicholls and Wags for taking the pressure off Conway at the right times.

Sir Devon Conway.

132 for 7 wickets for England today. Great effort. Bit more pace in the pitch today and they used it effectively.

[Donsteppa]

Right, sleep time. Hopefully to wake up to find the bloke with the ridiculous mullet and the spinner who doesn’t turn it have scythed through the English batting lineup.

🦆 Sibley out for a big fat 0. LBW to Jamieson.

4-1.

[sparky]

Wicket. Soft wicket. Crawley wafts at a wide one off Southee. Routine catch for Watling. 18-2.

[sparky]

Big pressure on Captain Root now.

[sparky]

Tea 25-2.

England 50-2. Steady as she goes since tea.

79-2. Burns approaching his 50.

[sparky]

England 111-2 at the close. They had the better of the day.

Well, appropriately with Queen's Birthday weekend coming up, we royally fucked that up. The foundation was there for the middle order to bury England but that was shit.

[Crucial]

Now, who was busy telling us yesterday that the days of the craps were long gone?

Wags the third highest scorer.

Love wags 🥰

Well that’s a slightly disappointing score to wake up to

I think we might have to ban him from posting jinxes for the day before each Black Caps match.

So waking up to CricInfo, I see the pointless in Tests uneconomical Santner even managed to bowl a no ball.

[Donsteppa]

So…

Conway: 200
The number 11 batsman: 25
Extras: 24
Nine other players in a supposedly deep batting lineup: 129
