yeah thats true but years of following them have left me jaded and pessimistic.We've lost 4 for 80ish, which isn't too great but the overall pictures still good. Will be interesting to see how Watling goes down the order

I've got a theory about Brownlie, when we are 90-4/5, he'll make runs, when we are 190-4/5, he'll make none.

Not sure how competitive we'll be with 350-400 on a road, will have to bowl well

Apparently it is unlikely that he'll play the 20/20 and ODI's.

Shane Bond reckons it looks bad, but he might just be projecting his own history onto the situation

Hopefully they are wrong. I just had a look at Metservice's rain radar and it looks like its nearly blown over

The rain radar is saying it should pass through. A band of rain is crossing the north island from west to east and has already passed over wellington and cleared. As long as they can get everything dry there should be some overs player this arvo.

Or not. Play abandoned for the day. Quite odd because it looks like it hasn't been raining there for the last half hour/hour.

Watling 100 even though he was an inch from being run out on 99.

495d and more good batting than bad so can't complain too much. Hopefully our bowlers can get some swing this morning. Am keen to see Bracewell and Boult bowl but think they may be first/second changes, but who knows.

Tommy what a ripper of a ball.

Boult opening at the other end, hasn't swung it yet but Tommy is.

Another good ball from Tommy. This could be embarrassing for Zimbabwe. I've been hoping they actually make a match of it so we get some good test match practice. Not sure that'll be the case.
