Ballance century on debut for Zimbabwe.
Ballance becomes the second player to score a Test century for two different countries. (Do ya remember the first?)

First three innings all declared. The 6th time in Test history.
Good on 'em for trying to make something... But shows how shamefully flat the pitch is. NZ and Pakistan both declared in their last Test. (Just two declarations.) Made the game exciting, but sheesh... Shouldn't need to do that. No two Test sides in the world are good enough to bat 5 days in conditions that are fair to bowlers.
Remember Sheffield Shields games in past times? Sometimes both states would declare without facing a single ball. Okay for Sheffield Shield. But too-artificial declarations cheapen Test cricket. |

Yeah I remember that Donny, a blast from the past! I’m sure that’s against the laws of cricket these days. _________________ I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️ |
