    Brook gone. 8 down. 30 mins until tea - which maybe earlier as NZ could be in soon & so taken at change of innings ?

    And people will keep telling me its got nothing to do with not having a warm up game. If not, then we should have them 5 down before the close. 
    Now that we only have them four down, it might be a good idea to ask you who England should have played against in a warm up match before this series. 

    Who should we have pulled the England squad out of championship matches and played them against? Or would you prefer that it were an "internal" match, between squad players, as they demonstrated so well before the Ashes series?

    Crazy to leave so early. They'll miss the start of the New Zealand second innings...

    Turns out facing the Ireland bowling attack is very different to the England one, who knew 
    It's ok. I'm just cooking some humble pie to have with my dinner...🥧

    Play can go on to 7.30pm tonight. They are supposedly allowed to bowl 85 overs today but I dont think going to happen seeing as we've only played 56 overs so far today.

    Perfect conditions for Robinson's return. 

    Grim for the MCC finances though. And Test Cricket as a creditable sport.

    6 down at close, not 5. Golfie wins again.

    Anyone offering international cricketers a course in how and when not to leave a cricket ball will be inundated.

    The remarkable aspect of the NZ innings is that, despite the conditions, not one of them has been caught behind the stumps - 4 bowled, 3 LBW and 1 caught at short leg. If only they could use the bat for which it was intended.

    I just hope that when it's England's turn to bowl that we bowl a full length and target the stumps. 
    This is basically what New Zealand have done and the wicket has rewarded them.
    None of this short pitched crap please England. 
    There you have it folks. 
    Absolute proof the England team reads Charlton life. 
    You were saying?

    The irony that playing full Bazball is the best approach on this wicket is mildly amusing

    That's more like it. O'Rourke caught at slip for 1 off Arkinson

    The "injured" Henry comes to the crease. He won't die wondering.

    More proof that Bazball is the way forward here
