    So that's why he posts the score every day.

    If he doesn't he'll forget.

    Forget what?


    Seriously, it's the first three things that go with us boomers:

    1. Your memory
    2. Your looks
    3. Your memory

    England hanging on by their short and curly's Harry.

    Still over 100 behind to make NZ bat again and 2 wickets left.

    Butler 18 balls and out for a duck and the rest were not much better.

    Lack of options probably the only thing that makes Root captain.

    England have looked in need of a shake up in this match.

    Considering they have a new coach they look very stale.

    So not only do I have the depressing feeling that today is Tuesday when it's only Monday, but we got walloped.

    Lack of options probably the only thing that makes Root captain.
    So is that a reason to leave him there when he looks like a scared rabbit in headlights?

    Maybe it's time to give Stokes a crack at it.

    Needs someone with balls (figuratively speaking).

    Or a N.Z Southern Hemisphere Pommy ring in should fit the bill as he has a criminal record.

    I hear Prince Andrew is good at bowling wrong-uns these days. Bowl an underage maiden over in a single over !

    Just some suggestions as your side are shite at the moment!

    Pink Ball Day/Night test just about to get underway in Adelaide.

    Drizzling now, but play is expected to commence shortly.
    UPDATE ... in 10 mins

    Drizzle/Showers are expected over the next few days.

    Australia won the toss and elected to Bat.


    Ideally Australia bat through to twilight tomorrow and let the swinging Pink Ball do it's damage.

    Assuming, that is, the Aussies get through tonight's session.
    Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago ...

    Is that in response to England's terrific start with the bat? You want a thread on Rounders?

    Some big scores getting racked up of late in India and Oz which is great for individual batting records, same can't be said for England though.

    Oz declare 589 for 3, can Pak avoid the follow on?

    EDIT

    Congrats Warner on 335 not out carried his bat.

    Aus v Pak, two reviews in the first two overs and Pak will be lucky not to be one wicket or more down before the close.

    David i've been watching it, could get ugly for Pak....again.

    Away teams have had a torrid time of late; Bang in Ind, Eng in NZ and Pak in Oz. I don't know if its lack of prep or just poor performances but the away bowling has been toothless and the home batting ruthless.

    EDIT

    and no nightwatchman for Pak...

    4 down for 69, on any other occasion that would be nice.

    I once had the "pleasure" of a fully catered VIP box at both the Cleveland Indians and Cleveland Cavaliers as a guest of BP America.

    The nosh was OK, the beer was utter piss and the sport is fucking shit. Rounders and Netball innit.

    England spinner Jack Leach was admitted to hospital with gastroenteritis during the second Test against New Zealand in Hamilton.

    The 28-year-old, who was dropped for the final match of the series, began feeling unwell after the morning session on day two.
    England say he is likely to stay in hospital overnight.


    "It's quite worrying news but we've got great medical staff to look after him," said England bowler Stuart Broad.

    England reached 39-2 in reply to New Zealand's 375 after two days at the Bay Oval.
