What will be at 6 am? Last session?

I reckon I’ll have a sense of how it’s going around 5:30. My son is back home for a bit but has to get up at that time for work. There’ll be a loud FFS if it’s not going well and a whoop if it is.

I think we have a decent chance this series, and especially this match with Cummins and the other one out and Cry Baby as captain.

Lunch at 4:20, tea at 7.

Wow, just seen what a TNT sports subscription costs. Pretty sure this will be available on Fawanews, which is where I watched England v All Blacks last weekend.

We have a Virgin package, which used to include BT Sports, but since TNT took over we don't get that. Virgin blocks Fawanews too, so I have reluctantly had to resort to an 'alternative' source. I can't be without the cricket.

How do you watch it? Laptop or TV? What browser do you use? I use Opera, which has a free VPN, or go via browser on Firestick. I'm on Virgin and don't have issues with FAWaa

I feel like I'm speaking in a second language, but I use Chrome on my laptop. I hate Virgin anyway and won't use them after my contract ends in the new year.
 
Perth is only 8 hours ahead of us, the other venues will be 10 hours ahead which will be better for watching the start...

Yeah, the games on the east coast start at midnight our time. I would watch the first session, then crash out and try to rouse myself for the last knockings.

Snap, Virgin WiFi, no blocks whether or not I use VPN. Usually watch on iPad rather than TV though.
 
I was hoping it was on Sky but bloody TNT got it & I won’t pay to have it either, so BBC or Sky up dates or radio, need to win 1st test
