I've never seen the point in a night watchman. If a proper batsman hasn't the ability or confidence to survive a few overs he shouldn't be there

To face an over or two and shield the better player for the next day it makes sense

I don't like Warner but have to admit that he deserved that triple century.

Pakis getting jabbed up the bum again.

Those pitches in NZ were fucking pathetic, 1st match would have been a draw too if not for some poor batting from England.

Adelaide pitch was also lifeless, hardly any wickets fell during the day.

3 Tests against Kiwis start next Thursday. First is a Day Nighter at the new ground in Perth. Hopefully that is a contest, as the MCG pitch for Boxing Day is going to be as dead as ever as well.

To continue my rant, Test cricket outside Aus/Eng/India is just about dead. Changes need to be made ASAP. No one wants to watch 5 day grind-fests on flat pitches featuring substandard teams.

My suggestions. 4 day tests with 100 overs a day, get some life in the pitches, and a new ball every 40 overs. Shit batsmen trying to protect their 50 averages can get fucked.
