Drinks break.

Just switched over to SBS and they're playing North To South - the "slow TV" trip along NZ's major transport lines. Relaxing. Really missing the place actually having had to cancel the 2020 June long weekend and speculative 2021 plans ...

[NTA]

This is tedious. Green might as well have a swing because he's going to get out poking at it.

[MN5]

Two fours in a row. He’s got the message

My telepathy isn't as fast as it used to be...

[MN5]

I reckon they’ll declare with a lead of 300 and go from there. Still ample time to have them two or three down for fuck all at close of play today.

[MN5]

Gilly just said Kawaja looked like Brian Lara with that last four. Hard to argue to be honest. Absolute class.

[NTA]

@mn5 he's got that glorious flashing blade style. Wristy

Easy batting now. No pressure. Green should be making hay here.

Yeah England are no chance now, are they giving Khawaja time to go for a hundie ?

[NTA]

@mn5 and giving green time for a 50.

[MN5]

Getting a hundie in both innings after being recalled would be a sensational effort and he’s looking fucken good to achieve that

Some slog sweep 6s. Not bad.

About time someone fucked up Root's bullshit average.

[NTA]

Green takes a single at the end of the over.

The crowd boo.

[NTA]

Well played that man. Stuck thru some tough shit and showed his poise when others fucked up.

Now go T20 mode

[MN5]

Awesome Waj. I hope this is a really strong second coming in your career. A hundie in each innings is great.

[NTA]

Interesting that Carey is coming out. Ponting mitt happy in comms. Suspect Carey will try T20 mode just to get some runs and time in the middle

If weather fucks up tomorrow... Well . ..

[NTA]

Yeah nothing like giving Leach a couple of freebies...

Finishes with 4-84. Not bad for the worst cricketer @mariner4life has ever seen.

Declaration comes, I’m picking England to be two down at stumps.

[MN5]

The stats nerd in me loves the fact that the Waj has increased his batting average from 40 to 43.

[NTA]

Let's fucking go

[NTA]

Moving East at a rate...
