It was a bit of a worry though as we turned on the radio on Saturday morning only to hear that England were 18 for 3. Crikey, it was going to be a torturous weekend. As you might imagine seeking someone to blame for the Brit's performance I was called a bad jinx. Last time I went to a cricket match it was in Melbourne to watch England play Australia in the ashes. And we all know what happened there.
The sun didn't shine on us in Napier but we did at least watch the final overs of England's first innings and then see the Black Caps bowled out in less than one day!
Fingers crossed we get the right result and the boys don't let themselves down.
Batting for England
Interesting notice for lunch break
Doh, I think that they meant this lot who were closer to the pitch! It was a wonderful sight to see kids playing cricket and an inspection of the pitch by fans.
More lunch time entertainment - Ian Botham, Mike Atherton and David (hmm, still looking good!) Gower broadcasting for Sky
Afternoon tea entertainment - NZTV and the Dilmah Team sponsored guest spot where every guest get's their Dilmah goodiebox!
Yah, back on the field again - our boys from blighty
