It was an absolute peach of a ball.

That was a great ball first up by Jamieson.

We get a review right and Pope is gone, dead square lbw to Southee. You've got to wonder why the umpire did not give it out from the start.

An absolutely stupid shot by Lawrence, flicking his bat at a wide-ish delivery straight to the Big Man

Great morning. Realistically, we have to knock them over this session, bat fast after tea, and give ourselves a day.

Two excellent balls to dismiss Pope and Bracey, with Lawrence flicking his bat at a wide ball.

Well deserved 5fa for Southee.

He's been so good in tests the last few years. Often unfairly maligned for his white ball form.

I think a draw is favourite now. NZ needed to be batting by now to have a chance. 300 lead. Get England batting again tonight.

But that looks unlikely now.

Got to say passive captaincy. No pressure on Anderson at all.

Yup, just meandering along. Needed a 150+ lead I reckon to have a half chance.

Finally. In isolation, 100 run first innings lead is good, but should have been 150+.

Interesting to see how they play the last session. About 37 overs left today. Probably bat to lunch tomorrow and have a dig and hope you can run through them.

62/2 at 2 runs per over - too slow but a great bowling effort from England.

So what's the plan tomorrow? I reckon throw the kitchen sink at it and try for a quick 80-100 then have a crack just before lunch say 4 overs.

Have to go for a result here, so need a sporting declaration. Already in tje test championship so would rather see them go for a result and lose then bat for a safe draw.

280ish in two sessions will make for a cracking finish.

Kiwis ahead after the edge day 4. Runs on the board entering a day 5 pitch is worth gold. Crappers just need 1 partnership. Ideally pull after 35 - 40 overs batting tomorrow and leave Eng 50-60 overs to get 275-300. If the Poms run through the Crappersand have to chase 220 they have a fair chance, provided Root scores big.

Why would NZ even consider giving England any chance of victory? This is test cricket, and an away test match draw is worth plenty. Almost as much as a home win in my books. I hope NZ bat for as long as the possibly can, all day if possible, and deny England even a sniff of a win. F**k England.

That’s hasn’t happened much in this game

Despite his heroics in the first innings still think he shouldn’t be opening long term

Burns very lucky to be there -Nz really shouldve wrapped this up about 200 ish

Certainly an option and would be good to keep the tired old legs of Broad and Anderson in the field for as long as possible. But overseas victories are hard to come by against the “big 3” and I’d love to see the Crappers push for a rare victory at the home of cricket. I’d also like to see England be the team that need to close up shop to avoid defeat.

Use the last day as batting practice for the WTC final and let the bowlers put their feet up.

Rain plus poor over rates did away with any chance of a result.

NZ hardly ever beat England in England... once in thirty years?

I can't imagine the All Blacks playing for a draw... :lol:

What would McCullum do...

You're not seriously equating draws in a Rugby game with a draw in test cricket, are you?

We've lost 21 overs to poor over rates so far, Probably close to 30 after today if we maintain the same rate. Nearly a session lost, really poor.

No. but this is the way other teams play against the All Blacks... let's not lose too badly... similar attitude of playing for a draw against England... it's not a winners mentality... I thought Brendan had stamped that out...

We don't want to be negative like that... we want to be like Australian cricket in the 90s and 2000s. go for the win.. never play for a draw.

Wonder if caps will be a little gun shy after they lost last time at Lords from the box seat.

This is a weak England team missing a number of Frontline players, if we bat well enough we could try to run through them after lunch. Strangely, if England run through us in the morning it might be the best chance we have of getting a win

if you have trouble with that one try one of the other links along the top of the page.

Wait for the ad to finish and close that, then hit play and wait. You'll need adblockers, etc

I had that but there was no commentary. All set now.
