Ah yes we started at 11:15 so there will be 2-3 before lunch.

Bumble!

ask the umpire is coming up on TMS.love to listen to that....

Bumbles really is an amazing person. Solo freaking funny

Broad gets Latham for 3 just after lunch. Caught by Buttler.

poor catching from England this game.. poor? wait utter shocking..Ballance and Bell are drones of each other.

Very fast scoring rate by NZ. Putting the pressure right bk on the bowlers.

Suspect that as this is effectively a one innings match, Kiwis have got their black uniform under the whites.... England worried that a wicket now will only increase the run-rate with macca in next

Need to bring wood on.. But nope Cook is a VERY poor captain..
To me Stokes will be the kind of player that will look a world beater in one game and the next 6 be useless. he needs to get more consistent..

see what I mean by Cooks captaincy.. he should have gone back to Broad not Anderson..

Wood gets Guptill. Important wicket.

Don't look good for England

poor test match from England...

Crap from England

Gotta say am very unconvinced about Stokes. I know he did well in the last game. Hes offered nothing so far in this game..

Stokes often bowls to short... gotta say really impressed with wood though.. Think'll he be a good bowler for England.

Boy, oh boy, with two days remaining, we seem to be in deep waters. I can't see England scoring 300+ in the fourth.

Buttler drops watling then the next ball goes for 6.

Buttler u moron that was easy.. how many catches is that?? in the last 2 matches??
You see the difference in mentality??? Wattling whacked the next ball for 6.. We would have defened the next ball..

first thing we need to do is to get rid of Bell at second slip. replace him with Lyth.. Cook Lyth and Root..that should be the 3 slips.. wont happen though.. Cook decides and he wants his mate next to him.

honestly don't know why both spinners are bowling when we have 4 seam bowlers?? COOK why??

back to wood good call..

I know England won the last test. But my goodness our peformances in the last almost 2 years as been appauling.. we won the ashes in England but we were average in that series aswell
Am sick to the back teeth of seing England play bad..
It comes from Cook. I do not rate him as a captain. hes been the worse captain in the last 20 years. he should just consentraite on himself and his batting..
Its shame there is no captain in the team that hates losing.
They only care about their own performance and not the team.
I know NZ are a tough side.. But England should do better.. They have been in a great position 2 times in this game, first they conceded at least 100 runs to many in the first innings and were 200 for 1 in their innings..

Wood gets the 5th wicket.finally..

If England were to win this Test it'd be their highest ever successful run chase (332 the previous highest). Records are there to be broken, but someone will have to play an absolute blinder of an innings
