And if it does?

80% sure it won't last 4 full days. If they lose this test it won't be becuase Kerzja wasn't picked.

Clarke isn't looking convincing, but he'll probably go on to make 100 now I've said that.

Close enough

Yeah, I'll take it. Probably the only thing I'll get close to getting right all summer.

After being cleaned up for a bit over 200 how do you think we will go today?

If we can bowl in the right area's (top of off stump) we should be able to restrict NZ pretty well. In the vision I saw of there effort's against NSW last week many of there dismissals were as a result of catches behind the wicket. If we bowl well I'm sure we will be able to find the edges.

I can't see NZ making more than 250.

I hope you're right.

Going to be a pretty important first session, we really need a few early wickets.

Problerm is even if we find the edge I've got zero faith in our ability to hold our catches behind the stumps. The wicketkeeper, slips cordon and the captains ability to deploy his slips cordon properly are abysmal ATM.

I have no faith in Haddin and it might be time to give some one else ago. His keeping is sus and his batting is worse.

Well I guess we are lucky he took that one then.

Makes up for the one he managed to deflect past Hayden earlier in the day.

Anyone know if you can get live cricket on your PC (without PC TV)

Re: 1st test selection

Time for Hayden to retire I am afraid.

Must go now after that first ball duck
