Absolutely buzzing!
Anyone seen the sprinkler dance....classic!
The boys seem on very good form with themselves. Now, ignore the mind games (I.e. Warnie), win the toss and bat and try and notch steady runs (unless the pitch is green/ weather overcast). 350+ over a "day and a half" and ease ourselves in to the series.

I'm led to believe that's rolled in grass so won't be an issue... I think there is a bit of gamesmanship going on and they are trying to make it look like a pitch you have to bowl first on in case they lose the toss when really that won't be the case. We'll see. |

It's a bat first pitch all day long... Bat first get 400 min and the worst you should do is draw

Alarm will be set for 5am for me, so should get an hour and a half of live action in before I have to go to work (assuming I have worked the timings out. I think the evening session should start around 4.40am?). Should have saved some holiday time  |
