BOOM!
Pretty brutal stuff from Warner. I wish they'd stop calling him "Davey" FFS. He's not a sailor.
Reputedly swears like the proverbial one, but

Can't quite answer the second one but in 2005 England won two test matches against BangladeshJust "did the math" & pretty sure we've now taken 10 wickets for 1,230 runs so far this series. I have a new mission for whoever it is that's all over the Most Runs On Day 1 thing: is 1,230 the Most Runs Conceded In Taking Ten Wickets? Test matches only, of course.
Bugger it, sitting at home trying not to wake the baby.Just "did the math" & pretty sure we've now taken 10 wickets for 1,230 runs so far this series.

I reckon that's the third most runs on day one of a test match, behind Bradman in 1930 and 1934.
All of the others in the list above Warner were scored in other than the first innings.

And as you indicated before, Warner would have faced less balls. Balanced against that, Bradman would have faced better bowling attacks that this NZ team. Larwood played in the 1930 test series, Bowes and Verity played in 1934.
Is the quality of the pitches perhaps related to TV interests wanting to have a five-day test?
