    ***Official*** West Indies in New Zealand 2013/14

    Always a bit sad to see a test career end... surely that's Deonarine's last innings?

    Jeez, just saw Ian Smith on camera... I don't watch a lot of Sky. He's.... portly? Rotund? Stout?

    Chanderpaul is Wagner's bunny... what is going on with the world?

    Ok, I was overly optimistic when I thought WI would get to 120. It's like watching NZ play someone decent - not capable of stringing two decent innings together.

    Windies 120 all out, NZ to win by 8 wickets?

    Nice to pitch it up and get some swing, but seriously, any half-competent opening bat would have pushed that straight for a couple...

    I don't believe it... sorry Mr Vijay, it wasn't on purpose, honest.....

    ***Official*** India in South Africa 2013/14

    Not trying to jinx anyone, but all the comments on CW I've ever read have been critical of Vijay so I wasn't expecting much. But he looks a bloody useful opener to me. Patient, leaves well, but even in ultra-defensive mode he still scores off the bad balls. Perfect guy to wear the bowlers and...

    This is shaping up to be one hell of a good test match....

    ***Official*** West Indies in New Zealand 2013/14

    His first ten overs were reasonable, but his last spell was pretty awful, with a hit-me ball or two every over. He's unlucky in that he gets the ball when it's soft, so he bowled overs 67 to 80 then handed over to the others wiht the new ball. But a) he's picked as third seamer so that's his...

    Question to Beamer, WW or KYear, whatever happened to Travis Dowlin? Thought he'd be well embedded in the test side by now. And Fudadin?

    You lose four quick wickets and suddenly losing the match becomes a very real prospect. Taylor and Anderson made sure that wasn't going to happen, but the rain arrived an hour too early.

    Feel sorry for Lyon - why do people seem to drop so many off him.

    Can play till 6.41. So have till about 6.11 to make a decision. Umps will be under pressure here - even if the ground is dry enough to play, light will not be good.

    *Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

    Come on England, don't give up hope. West indies have just saved a test from an equally bad situation. NZ didn't have anyone bowling 150+ though.... And you will need a third umpire who doesn't know the rules of cricket and some last day rain....

    It's very very dark now so even if the rain stops there's no way the umps would go back out - stupid new laws where the batsmen don't get to choose. I assume they can play till 6.30 at the latest? Could still change. Though in truth Dunedin does often have split days - lovely in the morning...

    Now heavy rain. I think this one might be all over. Clouds seem to be sweeping around from the north-west rather than just coming up from the bright parts of the south. Taylor's 16 off 61 doesn't look so clever now... And as I finish that the rain eases. I'll stop making any more forecasts...

    *Official* Second Test at the Adelaide Oval

    I think the no-ball needed a longer look - in the frame where it looked like something was just behind the line I don't think the foot had actually landed.
