[Cricket] New Zealand vs. England 2nd Test Cello Basin Reserve, Wellington

[Eeyore]

Another 'early' start due to overs lost - 9.30 PM UK Time.

Mrs Jakarta none too impressed with me creeping into bed after midnight 2 days running so probably will have to make up a good reason e.g. waiting for Jimmy to get his five fer...

Oooh, thanks for the info. I do love a good two and half hour session before going to sleep.

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Keep your love life to yourself @Brighton Lines

 

[atfc village]

Yu'd rather be at Barnet.

No mate it's one of the worst away days going . Nothing there unlike the wonderful Underhill

Oooh, thanks for the info. I do love a good two and half hour session before going to sleep.

Not at my time of life...

 

[Eeyore]

Not at my time of life...

Well, yes, I'd last about as long as Dean Conway did.

EDIT: Probably because I shouted the wrong name...

 

[Albion in the north]

Hope they get these 3 quickly. Only bowled 42 overs yesterday and an overnight break, cant be much better times to get them to follow on.

 

[jakarta]

Robinson opens the bowling , surely must be Anderson from the opposite end?

 

[jakarta]

Why on earth is Leach bowling and not Anderson?

 

[Albion in the north]

Leach been expensive so far this morning, without looking threateneing.

 

[jakarta]

Thank f*** for that, Leach is replaced by Broad.

EDIT who gets Southee 3rd delivery...

 

[Albion in the north]

Good change that. Broad bowls 3 balls. Southee dropped on the 2nd and then caught on the 3rd.

 

[ManOfSussex]

Impressive company Tim Southee moves into in terms of most sixes in Test cricket.

 

[jakarta]

And Broad gets another! 208-9

Follow on or not to follow on, that is the question?

England seem to like batting 4th....

 

[ManOfSussex]

Enforcing the follow on it is then.

 

[Bedsex]

Enforcing the follow on it is then.

Seems like the right decision to me

 

[Eeyore]

And Broad gets another! 208-9

Follow on or not to follow on, that is the question?

This. They do prefer to chase. Lovely conditions for seaming there today.

 

[jakarta]

Broad shows how it is done with the tail... 209 all out

And the Follow-on is enforced so England get their 4th Innings Chase after all!

 

[Pevenseagull]

Got to be a follow on just to see if Broad is having one of his streaks!

Could be 5 down at lunch

 

[jakarta]

1st Dig Anderson only bowled 10 overs (none so far today) and Broad 14.

They must both be just about warmed up for a proper couple of sessions...

 

[ManOfSussex]

When did England last enforce the follow on in a Test?
