  1. Thanks, Mike.

    This is certainly the time for the diehards - we have reached the middle of the night and England are in deep trouble.

    Let's push on through together.

  2. Well, fair to say England have a lot of work to do if they're to stand even the smallest chance of getting anything out of this match.

    To see if they can strike back after tea, here's Tom Mallows.

  3. wicket

    WICKET

    Potts c Phillips b Henry 1 (Eng 143 all out)

    Tea's not delayed for long - England's innings is done and dusted.

    Matty Potts is the man to go, going for a the big shot off Henry and skewing the ball into the air at backward point, where Glenn Phillips takes a decent catch running back.

    England walk off trailing the hosts by 204, their innings lasting not much more than a session.

  4. Eng 143-9

    Shoaib Bashir is last man out for England - a penny for his thoughts, he didn't get a bowl in the New Zealand innings.

    He knocks Santner towards point to get off the mark.

    Meanwhile tea has been delayed because England are nine down.

  5. wicket

    WICKET

    Carse c & b Santner 1 (Eng 141-9)

    It's clean!

    Carse advances and the ball scuds up off the pitch, straight onto the bottom of the bat and is taken by Santner, moving to his left.

    A third wicket for Santner, for the cost of just five runs - maybe New Zealand should have played him in the first two Tests...

  6. Umpire review

    "Howzat?" asks Mitch Santner tentatively as Brydon Carse chips the ball back at him.

    No-one seems quite sure if that was a bump ball - the umpires are going to take a look.

  7. Things are bubbling up nicely on day two of the third Test between Australia and India from the Gabba.

    After slipping to 44-2 early on, things got even worse for the hosts when Marnus Labuschagne edged a Nitish Kumar Reddy to Virat Kohli at second slip to depart for 12, leaving Australia wobbling on 75-3.

    Steve Smith and Travis Head are attempting a rebuilding job, with Pat Cummins' side currently 104-3.

    You can listen to commentary from that match here.

  8. Eng 141-8

    New batter Matty Potts sees the final delivery of Henry's over beat his bat.

  9. wicket

    WICKET

    Atkinson c Santner b Henry 4 (Eng 141-8)

    And now Santner gets a catch!

    Henry's delivery possibly holds in the pitch a little a Atkinson simply pops the ball in the air to mid-on, where Santner takes the grab stumbling forward.

    This England innings seems to be coming to a rather rapid conclusion.

  10. Eng 137-7

    There's another lbw appeal as Brydon Carse is struck deep in his crease.

    The umpire says no, with height the likely issue. Tom Latham isn't interested in the review.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    Stokes lbw b Santner 27 (Eng 137-7)

    No reprieve for Ben Stokes. Four reds, with the ball going on to hit the top of leg stump. The England skipper has to depart, leaving England in deep trouble.

  12. England review

    And it might just have got trickier.

    Ben Stokes goes for a huge sweep off Mitchell Santner and the ball cannons into his front pad.

    The finger goes up - but Stokes reviews.

  13. Eng 137-6

    Three singles come off the next Matt Henry's next over, though New Zealand have their tails up.

    This is turning into a tricky session for England.

  14. Eng 134-6

    Gus Atkinson studiously defends the final ball of Santner's over.

    A reminder that New Zealand's last three wickets added 116 to their total - can England's tail offer a similar performance?

  15. wicket

    WICKET

    Pope c Mitchell b Santner 24 (Eng 134-6)

    Maybe we should have seen spin a little earlier?

    Santner has a wicket with his fifth delivery as Pope edges into the waiting hands of Daryl Mitchell at slip.

    The foundations of an England rebuild take a blow.

  16. Eng 133-5

    After 127.1 overs in this Test, we have our first sight of spin.

    Mitchell Santer replaces Southee, and Stokes greets the New Zealand all-rounder by reverse sweeping his first ball for four.

    That's the fifty partnership.

  17. Eng 129-5

    Stokes takes a single from the final ball of Henry's over, easing the ball through backward point to deny the New Zealand seamer a maiden.

  18. Ashwanth R Kavuluri
    Cricviz analyst

    Average speeds (average swing) in this Test:

    • Will O'Rourke - 142 kph (1.8°)
    • Brydon Carse - 134 kph (0.8°)
    • Ben Stokes - 132 kph (1.2°)
    • Matt Henry - 131 kph (0.9°)
    • Gus Atkinson - 130 kph (1.0°)
    • Tim Southee - 128 kph (1.9°)
    • Matt Potts - 128 kph (0.6°)

    Will O'Rourke, the fastest bowler, generated 1.8° of swing, while Tim Southee, one of the slowest in this game, produced 1.9°. Both were able to extract more movement than the rest, despite their very differing bowling actions.

  19. Eng 128-5

    Pope 24, Stokes 19

    Stokes greets a full ball from Southee by nonchalantly turning the delivery through mid-wicket for four.

    That and a subsequent single takes this partnership to 46 from 11.1 overs.

  20. Eng 122-5

    Yep, O'Rourke gets a rest as Henry changes ends to start a second spell.

    A couple of singles from the over.

    Meanwhile the camera picks out former New Zealand international Nathan McCullum, brother of England coach Brendon, wearing a t-shirt with the sleeves crudely cut off.

    It's a look.
