Says friday evening our time on the BBC website??

Right. It starts 10.30 Saturday ( NZ time) just 20 ks up the road. Its easter weekend here(Is it over there?) Karen has insisted we go camping for 4 days at a beachside settlement.I was going to take the eldest to the cricket.. now, if you are a betting person/people go for the draw as the weather for the test is looking decidedly 'dodgy'. we are in drought conditions here so any rain would be welcome.Was hoping the negative outlook would deter us from going camping but as we are due to depart in 3 hours, it dosen't look like it.
I don't really expect much cricket from Sat late arvo onwards...
GO THE BLACK CAPS. Long live Stephen Flemming

I'd say feign illness to avoid the camping and get to the cricket ! last chance to see the Fleming in his natural habitat !

Sorry lins go my wires crossed, its a good job I looked at this thread again tonight or I would have been very disappointed around 9-30 tonight

Third and decisive test, lets put up a truly English performance and pulverise them.

On second thoughts lets put up a normal England performance and give them an easy win by throwing our first 3 wickets away for 4 runs

Doesn't look too promising so far does it?

[Kiwi John]

Well, the plan was to pack up and race home from the beach to catch the second and third sessions today(Monday) but when NZ did the traditional collapse yesterday, those plans were scuttled.Absolutely no sign of rain so it looks like you lot will get this one,as its 317/3 at time of writing.Gosh we are kind to you.
NOT HAPPY
