Yesterday Sara and I went to the Basin to watch the second Test against South Africa.
It was hardly classic cricket conditions with minimal sunshine, somewhat chilly and a nice chilly southerly.
It was not a great performance on the part of the Black Caps. In the end they had lost by 8 wickets by the end of the day, Day 3. We had already left but were mostly present to see the tumble of wickets and slow scoring.
Not really a great advert for cricket or New Zealanders at times with the number of people who were pretty pissed by early afternoon.
