With no play possible on day 1,the scheduled hours of play will be a 21.00 GMT start for the remaining 4 days, so potentially only 2 sessions have been lost & not 3.

England deep in the shit at 71-5,played some bad shots,but to give New Zealand credit they have bowled tight.

England are dismissed in only 55 overs for a paltry 167. New Zealand close on 131 without loss.

A good wake-up call for England with tougher opposition than this to come.yet again they start an overseas series poorly.

An improved bowling performance,& would have bowled them out by now if they'd taken all their catches.Expect New Zealand to go for quick runs & declare,unless England can bowl them out.
Close Day 3 NZ 402 -7 lead ENG by 235 runs. Rutherford 171 Fulton 55 McCullum 44 not out Anderson 4-108

Thought England were a bit unlucky with edges not going to hand a lot of the time.

New Zealand declared their innings on 460-9 & lead England by 293 runs.

Cook & Compton blunt the New Zealand attack & put on a 231 opening partnership,a record against New Zealand.Cook was dismissed for 116 just before the close & it was down to nightwatchman Finn to guide Compton through to his maiden century,as they reach 234-1 at stumps with Compton on 102 not out,England still trail by 59 runs.

But why was Finn sent in? I thought the nightwatchman was Anderson's job.

I thought the nightwatchman was Anderson's job.I think with the present line-up without Swann or Bresnan & a long tail they see Finn as the man.He's more likely to make runs if he does his job & survives until the next day as he's got more shots than Anderson.Maybe they're trying to look after Anderson,but what they must do is get him back in the slips as they're a shambles.
