Good luck @Mackenzie - let’s hope you have a great 3/4 hours play and an exciting victory for the Stokes/McCullum entertainment train

Has it rained that much since 10? Is it raining now? The delay seems unnecessarily long.

Utterly ridiculous. Really annoys me about test cricket. If the pitch is fit to play just bloody get out there and play now, not in 45 minutes

If he plays like he does at Sussex he changes shoes if he swaps between bowling & fielding.

Back on now.

 

[Ethelwulf]

It is a worry that Boland has made 19 he is a walking wicket

 

[Ethelwulf]

And now made highest test score of his career fffs 20

 

[ManOfSussex]

He's out though!

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Always good to get out the Night Watcher

 

[pasty]
