Looking good now after the tail rescued a nasty looking situation. And Jimmy has just taken a wicket. NZ 6-1.

Anyone else follow the live text on BBC? Very funny.

    The Guardian live coverage is funny too by the way.

    BBC coverage is funny, just not frequent enough. Cricinfo has ball by ball coverage which during certain spells of a match can stop me from working :oops: . Like today, Jimmy was mesmerising, his first 2 wickets were dream balls (for me anyway :lol: ) I hope he saves a few for Smith and the Saffers :D . Saw the second day at Lords against the Kiwis, hiding from the rain in the Warner Bar :( and should see the second day against South Africa from the Moundstand 8) and the T20 against Slurrey :lol:

    England are looking solid, and will be stronger with Flintoff etc are back from injury. BUT New Zealand are dul ldull dull, unfortunately. They have two wolrd class players, the rest are club level.

    Yeah watching(!) cricket on the modern version of the test card can be good.

    I personally like listening to Boycott, just makes me smile and he talks with superb accuracy and insight AND slips in the odd 'love' when talking to females - Class. :)
