No mention of the T20 games. 1 apiece I think at the moment. All very low key.

Time to swap swing low for Jerusalem.

Meeting up with a couple of other Bolton fans for the 5th T20 at Eden Park. 

It's on at a shit time and we are playing the reserves

That's why there's little interest

I've watched plenty of the first two and very uninspiring, so far

Parkinson made his debut during the night.

 

1 - 12 off 2 overs. Shame about the result though.

 

 

Woke up early for no reason, but great hitting from these 2

The weather is looking shite for the 5th T20 so may well be an unsatisfactory end. Been glorious all week in Auckland too. 

A good win and fine display of batting. Shame if the decider is lost to the weather.

Great start from Parkinson - should have been even better, had a dolly dropped and an LBW not given - got smashed in his last over by the player who was dropped!

Caught the end of this, another super over, another win

Had to peel myself from the pub for that. Marvellous! 

Lightning striking twice. 

Bolton's here, Bolton's there, nah nah nah etc

 

Pretty sure that's Winny btw.

😊 Saves his holidays for the cricket. I’ll be meeting up with him in Cape Town. Question is, will the flag be appropriate in SA. Mrs. B thinks not. (She’s been through one of those local government courses) I’ll leave it up to him.

Take the flag

Get shut of Mrs B

Aye Winny arrives tomorrow apparently. Not unreasonably I thought Sydney White in Tauranga would be him. There's two mad uns it seems 🙂

👍 More than two I think. Certainly a few in Sydney.

 

Is he around next week in Hamilton? May meet him if so. 

Booked a weekend on Great Barrier Island so couldn't make the First Test. 

No. Only there for the first Test.

He chose the better venue. Hamilton ain't great! 

Well this is very very shit. On a day/evening when I’m looking for some solace. 496/6. I’m off to bed. 

Bastard. 

Stokes and Pope's dismissals were poor. We don't seem to want to learn the lessons.

Same old frailties on show from the Captain and his team
