Sitting on comfy sofa with kambal and a cup of joe watching Pak-Aus test match and wife sleeping... sounds good to me.

I'll be happy, well, at least til Pak come out to bat... then i'm gonna need a danda, pillow and sound proof walls...

BTW, what time EST?

19:30 ET -1d/ 16:30 PT -1d (11:30 local) Sat 12/26 - Wed 12/30

All test start at the same time, since there is no test at Perth, which would add like 2 hours difference.

18

Yes, 19:30 EST.

18:30 is my time here in Central zone.
