Nice Timaru. Should have played you lot over 5 tests and used these crappy old men from Australia as the gentle 2 test warm up....

Morning everyone. Boycott was at his jingoistic and critical best yesterday on the channel 5 highliights programme -he did the opening slot with Michael Slater.
Blowers on TMS almost had an on air cardiac.

Boycott on TMS about the Clarke dismissal - "my mum wouldn't have reached that with her sweeping brush.." !

Sometimes I am surprised that Boycs doesn't get his clock cleaned live on air....of course there is banter, and on days like yesterday the Aussie part of the commentary team would have copped it, but there's something....irritating?...unpleasant? about the way Boycs goes about it.

Morning Sarrers, morning MDOTs.

Agree about Boycott, he really will get a slap one day. Trouble is, he does know his stuff...

Today? Bat and bat and bat and bat (though if fewer than 6 wickets fall on this pitch today, after 14 yesterday, I'd be surprised; it just depends on how demoralised the Aussie bowlers are!) This is probably another 280 pitch; they've grossly underperformed and we've overperformed; we'll find out how much by by stumps :) )

Boycott is brilliant. He's mellowed since his cancer IMO.

Respected all over the world as a pundit.

That was one of the most mental days play I've seen in a long, long time. Hopefully this morning will be steady accumulation to calm the nerves a bit, then a nice bit of biff in the afternoon to really rub it in, and declaring with an hour to go.

Boycs is okay but his mum is the real star of the show
