Not awoke
Watched until the fifth wicket went…and then the last four overs..after Leach (well done him) went it was sound down and looking through fingers until the final ball

Sure @HKFC can offer you something like this……..
Yep. One of the most placid fifth day pitches I've seen. As long as England didn't do something stupid ( like go the win), they could grind it out

Said similar to the missus: 'village rules and Tests are identical at this stage of proceedings'
Miss that.

Amazing what can be achieved when you take a shit manager out of the equation.

Usually because I'd played the role of Hameed at half past five
Got up at six thirty this morning with the dog not expecting us to still be in, unless it was raining. He didn't get walkies till nearly eight. A real tense finish but this time some actual positives to take; five day test, no whitewash, first century of the tour, some actual runs from an opener.
Might make Hobart vaguely interesting, in a "we could possibly draw again" kind of way.

The most curious thing..
Where's the other fielder - was he shy?
Is it PotG?

Above pic reminded me of the Deadly Derek photo.

Does the dog get used to you both going out partying in the middle of dry nights ? Or is it a keen cricket fan ?

I THINK I still have that photo in my 1968 Wisden Almanack somewhere - a sticky dog effectively. Only NSCers of a certain age will know what I’m babbling about
Next match a day nighter in Hobart. Even the English players will be in jumpers.
Looks like the Championship matches in April had some reason to them after all
Forecast looks pretty English - and wet.
Might be draw weather but it might also be "lose the toss, get inserted and end up 37 all out" weather.

Maybe, should have been in the north of the state wedge on Saturday. Usually a decent batting track, although the Tassie batters usually aren’t good enough to take advantage. Mmmm, sounds more and more like England all the time! Will report back after my weekend trip down south. At least I might get home early if we don’t get to the end of day 3.

Big few days for Tasmania, the biggest sport event they've ever held.
Another wedge on at 6/1 yesterday and more today at 11/2. Alarm set for 3:50 am. Looking forward to a good day of victorious sport.
A seam wicket for Robinson and Woakes returning and for Broad and Wood. Be good to watch Billings behind the wicket too.
Great aperitif for the evening.
