Kind of brutal how as NZ's golden age wanes, they'll clearly be reduced to an absolute shell of a side which the bigger nations bully remorselessly. Not much coming through at the younger levels
Stuck in Malaysia at the moment.Put us up in hotel last night and tonight but Tuesday night dont know whats happening.One of the guys staying in the hotel saying that theres an Emirates flying out of Dubai later tonight to Auckland.He has a friend flying out later tonight.Theres flights flying to Australia from Auckland tomorrow but until we hear from Malaysian airlines where stuck here.
Where can we watch the NZ series then guys ? Dont think it's on Sky.....is it on C4 or have the ECB sold out to Amazon like the EPL did.
On BT Sport. Not that the time zone is exactly convenient
Damn. I have both Sky & Amazon Prime. BT Sport I can pay £10pm via one of the kids EE accounts. First test kicks off at 1am thought so might give that one a miss 🙂

It's hardly the sort of series TV companies will be fighting over, being overnight. Plus there's the cyclone...
I’d be very surprised if the Test started on Thursday given that the whole area is under a state of emergency at the moment - heavy rain and wild winds

It's also a "friendly" series, outside the World Test Championship. Hopefully WTC series will have more cachet in future and all those series will be televised and optimised for away team consumption.
The pitch is dry and ready to go. It’s been a fine day today in Mt Maunganui with the possibility of the odd shower tomorrow (match day). Remarkable really given the sheer devastation up and down the east coast and up north.

We've still got to get Smith and Labuschagne out cheaply etc.
Sold it to sky = OK because you do?
The 2nd Test, starting at a normal time, starts at 10pm UK time, so at least the first session is watchable.
I think we will have some play.
England bat first scored 350 in the first 50 overs then skittle them under the lights...
You don't want to start your innings under lights.
The teams stood to attention, as did the crowd, to remember those who lost their lives during Cyclone Gabrielle and the thousands left homeless.
We’re underway. Southee to open the bowling and Crawley edges through the slips for 2. Four slips and a gulley.
