Reading this blog you wouldn’t know that the England cricket team are here on their NZ cricket tour. It’s not something that get’s talked about much in our house but rather much desparate staring at the TV screen in disbelief.
So far it’s not been a great tour. The one day games have been pitiful and they lost the first test hands down. But, things have been looking up and they’ve been playing at the Basin Reserve in Wellington. MT went this morning and joined the serious cricket watchers in the shade of the stand.
MT’s view of the match
The Basin was packed with 8,000 capacity crowd. Lots and lots of Brits frying in the NZ sun. They always say you can’t beat Wellington on a good day – today is a good day and the cricket has been going pretty well for England.
I won’t say any more about the score at this point for fear of tempting fate but suffice to say that the headlines in the paper reads “Black Caps face massive task” ….. and there is lots of pics of the Barmy Army on tour!
