    Just switched on ready to see some wickets while I enjoy my cherry tango ice pop. The dogs worn me out from his walk!

    Cherry tango? So cherry and orange together?

    No just cherry. There's all sorts of tango flavours nowadays.

    Should have hit the stumps there at test level surely?

    Thank goodness for that.... the concept of mixing cherry and orange in a drink together was addling my poor grey matter!!!

    It’s been fairly slow going but good effort from Robinson getting his first two test wickets.

    I’ve had a fairly long walk from Harrogate to Knaresborough - hard work in this tropical weather. The queues on the river promenade for boats, ice creams etc are ridiculous. Like a seaside resort today!

    I love Knaresborough but it's quite narrow near the row boats.

    He's batting very well. Hard work for the bowlers today. Good toss to win.

    Good day for New Zealand but that over rate from England is an utter disgrace.

    Looks hard work today - I don't miss those long days in the field.

    We need a couple of wickets with the Second new ball.

    Teams should be made to stay on the pitch until all overs are bowled no matter how long it takes and those responsible should be getting bans.

    Would you not delete it though when you'd grown up?

    Agree. so long as the light holds out for the batsmen.
    June. in england certainly ain't a problem mind.
    Pakistan v England probably the most controversial. When England won in the dark. :)
    The tv screening of the match giving a totally false impression of the real light.

    I have an app running which removes my Twitter history automatically every Two weeks, just not worth it with so many offence archaeologists about and I’m not even famous.
