Out early doors though. Good start for Tim.

Saturday. Won't be any schoolkids to fill the ground.

Siriwardana is a bit good for a number seven.

13C in Dunedin at the moment according to Accuweather, probably feels single figures with the wind chill.

Excellent catch by Doug Bracewell earlier in the morning, shame he could only land outside the boundary.

Thought KW might have had a bowl against the two lefties. But the Kiwi's morning nonetheless.

Big lead for the Kiwis. Probably a draw best SL can hope for.

I think we can see the way this test is going.

Does the sun ever shine in NZ?


Every time I see a test there the skies are always grey.

Probably asked before, but would Stokes get in the NZ Test side?

So when do NZ declare? SL managed to bat out 4 sessions in the first knock. The pitch doesn't look too hard to bat on.

Was cracking the flags 16 days out of 18 I was over in NZ this year.

Oddly enough it's drier in Dunedin during the Winter than Mid-Spring/Early Summer and December is the wettest month!

Quite a sporting declaration for a ground with so many draws played out on it.
