    Great start for NZ 58-0.

    Spoke to soon. Latham bowled for 23 by Ollie Robinson for his debut wicket off an inside edge.

    Latham looked out of sorts for the last 20 minutes

    I'm marking that pull shot as a pivotal moment.

    Places that want to remind you that you're not in France. UK, USA and most of the Anglophone Caribbean nations.

    Wood is their Wags. I'm not sure they'd want to swap

    He is more of a conventional first change out and out pace bowler no? Wood isn't bowling 15 over spells and you aren't brining Wagner on to blow through the tail. Wood is closer to a better version of Henry.

    Kane really is a great "leaver" isn't he?

    Thoughts on who is/was better at that?

    @rotated attitude and team spirit. Apologies for not being pedantic. Nobody ever is like wags, there's a video by Jarrod Kimber illustrating exactly why

    Well about the only complaint I have about that session is the time zone it was played in🙂

    Can devon cope with an afternoon of short stuff?

    Steve Smith springs to mind. Frequency, patience and making bowlers change, not elegance🙂

    so I broke down and signed up with Spark - must say despite being purely wireless, being able to watch in 1080p on my budget 24" monitor connected to a 10 year old laptop has actually worked very nicely so far. I'll make a final decision when this test ends but it's actually easier watching tests in England live than domestically.

    He hits the ball so damn late. There was one delivery where he seemed to hit it so late it was about to hit the stumps. One of the fielders looked quite perplexed

    @canefan Nasser did a great analysis highlighting a small "box" where he keeps his hands. Never goes outside the box essentially when defending. Look at his hands and how far they move from his body and you'll quickly see his point, well made.

    I blame you for that.

    Ok, I'm going to say it.

    Ross Taylor is past it. Great career but the body can't cope ( eyes, reflexes etc). Think Keiran Read in 2019

    There, I've said it (nervous gulp)
