macullum cld create carnage here.....free to let loose.....

Two wickets for Broad.......thats his place secure for the next 20 test matches

Wicket. McCullum out for 42 off the bowling of Wood

Feck me...what's the point of a review system if not to get to the right decision...waste of time...clearly out

Early lunch taken. NZ ahead with 6 wickets left.

BBC say Gillespie would take the England job.

The morning session belonged to England.
Kiwis showed great character but England came back hard and finished the session stronger.

Kiwis will be grateful for the longer lunch break. It'll be a huge test for Kiwis batsmen now especially with England bowlers fully charged up and in their aggressive bully mode.

The conditions were there for England seamers to exploit - cloudy gloomy & overcast conditions - Kiwis will really have to bat well & dig deep.

Its only a flat batting paradise pitch when its sunny but when its cloudy & overcast - it gives a chance for the bowlers to exploit the conditions with the swing/off the ball seam movement & uneven bounce.

Kiwis will have to graft hard & get a very size-able 1st innings lead becos England are in control specially when one wicket could quite easily cause a batting collapse.

I'll have what he's smoking.

England cruising here.

Bowlers are fired up & couple of rookies in at the crease - England smell blood because a collapse is just waiting to be happen.

Kiwis need a counter-attack & quickly but England have got a stranglehold on Kiwis batsmen.

thank goodness for technology.. it wasn't out..

What...the lbw...what makes you say that...in line hitting stumps...

I was meaning the caught behind it wasn't out. you can debate lbws to the cows come home..

Anyway England are in the mire now.

Anyone else get annoyed at Bell?. hes so laid back hes almost vertical. I could slap him awake..

England have totally dominated the afternoon session so far.

Kiwis have slow & not making progress & all credit to England bowlers.

Kiwis need to counter & fast becos England are in control.

grande p|ss off

Anderson seems to be going through the motions.. they all do.

I dont know what match you are watching but England have dominated since the new ball.

The scoreline may not be a reflection of the match circumstance but England seamers have done a great job with very little luck (dropped catches etc)

Im watching the same game.. They may look incontrol.. but this lead is mounting..

Ah right...never saw that ...your opinion on the lbw...out of interest..?

Oh...a break through

finally Williamson as gone...good riddance..

Well be relying on the weather for a draw no doubt...

Hmm..very slight nick that...

Ohh...ali...

The opinion it was out.. But they go by a mm either way.I think they should make it a 3rd of the ball hitting the stumps..
But we have seen very close calls going either way.
