They've never played a Test match in Hobart, so makes a change.

I've never been to Tassie - supposed to be cold, even at this time of year. It's in line with New Zealand, so that makes sense. It's always cooler there than the Aussie mainland. Day/night will make things a bit chillier, but at least we'll have an opportunity to see a bit more than if it was just daytime.

Looking forward to it - and hoping for another five-day match.
