40 minutes.

Watched since halfway through the second session, looks like test cricket to me! Bit more in the pitch than usual Adelaide, but all is basically normal, day/night tests seem to be getting off to a good start.

The ball definitely seems to have held up much better than the red balls used so far in this series!

They were saying on the radio that the pitch was prepared with extra grass on it to help protect the ball.

No starc!(to bowl anyway)

If Kane and Ross can get into the daylight tomorrow, and bat a while, then mcullum take off(as he is starcs bunny, and is therefore free) I reckon nz will win this in 4 days.

That 3rd umpire decision on Nathan lon was by far the worst umpiring I have seen. Gotta feel for nz - they would have 100+ ahead right now.

Was a shocking decision! Lyon thought he was out too and was walking off

Helloooooooo 3 day test match
Nothing wrong with a 3 day Test I reckon: a lot more exciting than the 5 day bore-a-thon that we saw in Perth...

Yeah I'm not sure how you can say "there's a hot spot where the ball passed, but that could have been made by anything so we'll ignore that"


Interesting that the umps are 16 for 16 on reviews, I.e the 3rd umpire has always proved them right.
Some one playing with the tech here in an attempt to prove umps are the dogs b???

Yeah ruins the game. Aus doesn't deserve to win anymore.

What a load of crap. Its not Australia's fault that umpire, after a ton of replays and using all the tech in the book, had doubt and gave him not out. Maybe you should be wondering why a supposedly giant edge registered nothing on the snicko? Did England also deserve to not win when Broad nicked one and Aleem Dar missed the edge? Or when Khawaja was given out caught behind with zero on the hotspot? Of course not. You English have very selective memories.
