Thanks a lot PC

Now it's a few bays for wannabe celebs at 180 bucks a pop.

If Kane Williamson was Indian or Pakistani youd question if he was match fixing out there. Every time they take a wicket he lets the foot off the throat. Starting the session with wicket keeper opener Blundell or whenever he throws the ball to Santner he is bringing the game into disrepute

Head and Paine giving the kiwis plenty of headaches that session

First time I’ve been at a test match game for a few years, and woweee the security there just don’t have a feel for the occasion and Aussie cricket, saw a bloke get thrown out because he ‘pretended’ to scull a beer when people were chanting, took a sip and then sat down. Also, make to much noise and they’re onto you for that too, Bay13 goneski as well, absolute disgrace.

That seems very excessive, kicked out for skulling a drink? Must be more to it.

Meanwhile, Australi looking likely to only bat once again this test. Disappointing showing from the Kiwis.

bitterly disappointed in nz. what an underwhelming summer of cricket. other than wagner they're all too nice and have basically just accepted their hiding. to have their ex players bang on about how crap it was to not play boxing day in 30 years, well, they might want to forget that this one ever happened.

Wasn’t even aware about this streaming series, but it should be good viewing.

Didn't even know about it until I came across that clip last night. Supposedly its 8 episodes, covering the period from the Test series against India until the Ashes (including the World Cup). I don't have Amazon Prime but will find a way to at least check out that Smith/Archer episode.

I've watched the first 6 episodes on prime. It's very good.

Watched ep 1. This is gripping viewing.

I think ep 4 is the best so far. All about Finchy.

 

[Spanish Sahara]

Looking forward to watching a few tonight

Didn't even know it was released yet, nice. Might try that prime 30 day trial thing, pretty handy option to have to watch with the apocalypse pending.

Phil Gould thinks the SA bowlers are just on top no doubt

Joe Burns bloody lucky to get picked.
Debut for Green?

Some real old school test match cricket, enjoying this. King Kohli obviously the huge danger, loves batting in Adelaide.

Cummins is a sensational bowler, has given the Indian batsmen very little to work with. The second new ball could spell some big trouble for India.
