    Not sure why Southee hasn't brought himself back. New Zealand's best bowler by a mile.

    Whatever the result..... magnificent game. Test cricket still is, and always will be, the pinnacle of the sport.

    No jinx, if Root doesn't get out, England win.

    Well done England - Joe Root is just too good unfortunately. The difference I think is in the strength of the respective sides' bowling attacks - if we had Boult and Jamieson playing, things may have been different.

    New Zealand cricket pitches don't tend to break up on day five, which means whether it's day three, four or five, generally they're still pretty good to bat on.

    Considering Hiroshima. How many nights did you stay there? From having a google, would I be right that it's around three and a half hours by bullet train from Tokyo?

    Haha, I obviously meant to say Tokyo, not Disneyland, but yeah we'd do one day at Disneyland Tokyo.

    Open to suggestions. We were thinking maybe four-five days in Disneyland and a few days elsewhere. The Fuji/Hakone area looks fantastic and we enjoy getting out of the city and doing a bit of exploring in natural areas so we considered that for a couple of days.

    Off to Japan for eight days in May, flying in and out of Tokyo. Never been before, and nothing as yet booked on the ground apart from the first two nights in Tokyo. Any tips for what to see and do greatly appreciated!
