Some high cloud but no wind and could get nice and warm today. Full day ahead.

Cheers, are you attending the game at any stage, Enz?

No. I am taking a drug to settle the nerves in my back and legs (from the back injury) and it reacts funnily to direct sunlight,

Going to the rugby tomorrow night instead

Comment re KW on cricinfo

Simon: "Here's a stat for you - since 2017 Kane Williamson has averaged 60.48 in test cricket, an impressive stat by itself, however his weakness has been susceptibility early. If he gets past just 5 runs his average leaps up to massive 93.90!"

The skipper gets his double ton. A superb innings, sheer class throughout.

Double ton for Kane - super effort that.

The Windies bowling has been pretty tight today.


And Roach gets Mitchell as I speak.

A third double ton for KW .

That stat about his average is crazy - get him early or pay the price.

Is he trying to get to 300 for the declaration?

KW snicks one to slip but it was a no ball.

Definitely upping the tempo. It will be interesting to see if Jamieson joins in.

KW on 222*. If only Richie Benaud was here to call it.

The jury is in.

Jamieson is the batsman that Southee could have been.

Harsh but true.

Waits till Jamieson got his maiden 50 then declares at 519/7.

Kane superb always. Jamieson looks like he could develop into a handy 7, which would be nice to allow us to play 4 genuine quicks + a spinner.

Tim Seifert and Glenn Phillips have both brought up 100s against West Indies A too. Can't remember a time we've had so much depth when you think of who's not in this team: Watling, Patel, Conway, CDG, Ferguson, Henry, Phillips, Santner. Genuine bench strength for once.

Some Wagner tickle is required

The weather doesn't know what it wants to do this morning. Seems to be building up slowly to some wet stuff.

My friend is curious about whether the links Comets posted will work today. He says they were very good yesterday.

My friend has used those links a lot and swears by them.

(Nothing doing - I see this message though)

My friend concurs.

https://en.webcric.com/watch-new-zealan ... eaming.htm is working well for me

Great start - Southee snares Campbell (with a ball in the slot but he seemed surprised by it)

And another - beautiful outswinger by Southee and Brooks goes for 1

It's on. Boult gets Brathwaite - great catch from Blundell

55 for 3

Yep, that was a terrific grab by Blundell.

Good start to the day, bowlers on the money.

Cricinfo have just published this as one of their viewers/readers comments.

Scott Watson: "Loving following the commentary from the deck of my boat in the sunny Marlborough Sounds, nothing better than giving the boat a deep clean in the morning, putting your feet up and following the cricket"

And quickly deleted by the looks of it.

79-5. Not a bad first hour or so.

Jamieson and Wagner get wickets on successive balls.

79/5 and struggling.

My friend is having the same problem and hasn’t got alternatives working either.

This is working but there is no sound.

I can’t get past the ads .

uhm the /foxcricket link should work, the other not so much, its harder to get the nz games than the aussie one lol

Started to rain lightly at my place

I've been watching this test off and on throughout, and I'm yet to see a wicket fall live. Maybe I should change channel for a while?
