New Zealand England Daily, 1st Test, Christchurch Day 1: New Zealand chuck it away. From 199 for three to 319 for eight, it's level, but England are happier. Kane Williamson is back and in the runs, Shoaib Bashir takes 4fer on a day one green top. But, was it good bowling or did the Black Caps just get it wrong after tea.

Season 17, Episode 13: Okay, we didn't get the dots on, but we did record at Perth's gorgeous campus where for two decades bowlers with suspect actions visited from everywhere. Aaron Chin, a biomechanist who worked on the project, tells us all about it. Earlier, it is everything-other-than-the-BGT on our agenda, including a trip over to Christchurch with Cam Ponsonby. There's also a light-touch IPL auction chat, comparisons between Henry Hunt and Harold Holt, and the PCB (rightly) cashing in. Then a red-ball wrap for men and a white-ball lap for women.
