Good stuff by New Zealand overnight, especially The Phantom. Watching a bit of the t20 series highlights while waiting for the rain to clear in Dunedin, I feel sure I saw a Martin Guptill misfield, but that can't possibly have happened. Can it?

More on Dravid. As you know, he's faced more deliveries in Test cricket than anyone else. He faced 31,258 balls and was out 254 times. That's a staggering 31,004 failed attempts to get him out. Truly, The Wall.

And congratulations England, number 1 ranked Test side on an arbitrarily decided moment in time and all thanks to the fact that it often rains in New Zealand in March. Actually, you can lose the 'in March' bit...

I know it's been done before, in fact i suspect it's compulsory that when you start using a bowling machine, that you gradually crank it up to 80 and then 90 mph and video the poor soul who is on the receiving end , to be fair to Chris who had the honours he look's reasonably comfortable
