[Cricket] New Zealand v England 1st Test

[Shropshire Seagull]

A lot will depend on how long Stokes and Pope can continue together. In an ideal world they will still be together at lunch.

No, in an ideal world, they'll still be together at the close ....

You think you've got problems. I have a bag of jam doughnuts and a Big Sam style pint of wine but I can't get up to get my crisps from the kitchen because my cat is asleep on me.

And the fat ******* is too cute to disturb.

And my right leg is going numb, because he's a fat *******.....

Anyway. First half hour after lunch could be crucial here.

Update. The cat has ****ed off outside so I'm cracking open the ham and mustard Brannigans (only realised that they still made them earlier this week) and topping up the pint of wine.

Come on England. Buttler should be taking these singles as Leach is no mug with the bat. I'll still be happy enough with 350.......
