    Trent Boult is a very good golfer. Although he's playing a bit of baseball here.

    The kindest thing you can say about Trent Boult's batting is that it's entertainingly unorthodox.

    The Kiwi number 11 ends up basically standing next to his stumps, trying to play a ball from outside off into the leg side.

    Boult slices away through cover for a couple and that'll be drinks.

    Tim Carlisle: It may be two years since Broad got a five-for but have to remember Anderson is out there too - and other have contributed. This is England's all-time best attack. Fallow patches will happen... but thrilled too that he appears reinvigorated.

    2006 was the last time England had two bowlers take five wickets each in a Test innings. Steve Harmison and Monty Panesar both took five, external against Pakistan at Old Trafford.

    Last man Trent Boult gets off the mark, clipping to leg for two.

    He then tries an ugly tennis shot across the line and misses it by a mile.

    Boult backs away, expecting the short ball, but ends up chipping it past mid-on for two more.

    Trent Boult's footwork is always intriguing. He's not afraid to play some rather agricultural strokes.

    Very full, just swinging away and Tim Southee's missed it by a country mile.

    Southee b Anderson 50 (NZ 239-9)

    50 and done for Southee and Anderson sends middle stump flying.

    It was full, pitching on leg and swinging away past Southee's expansive slog.

    Can Anderson pick up a five-for too?

    Tim Southee's half-century came from 45 balls with eight fours and one six in 80 minutes.

    That's Tim Southee's fourth Test half-century - and well deserved, too.

    Wagner gets off the mark, nudging it away from under his arm pit to bring Southee on strike.

    And there's his fifty as he taps it to mid-wicket to jog a single.

    A fine knock, with some cracking shots this morning.

    Joe Root appears to be remonstrating with the umpires about the ball, perhaps asking if he can get another new one due to any damage done by Wagner's helmet.

    I think it's damaged the ball, too.

    He's got a bit of an egg around the side of his head.

    Neil Wagner cops a Stuart Broad short ball in the side of the helmet.

    All smiles straight away but he'll need a new lid and a check up.

  17. NZ 236-8published at 85 overs

    Tim Southee knows only one way to try and erode this deficit - swing and swing hard,

    He goes for an almighty hoik and the ball loops over Jonny Bairstow's head and away to the fence.

    Neil Wagner is the new man in and is beaten by a James Anderson jaffa that whistles past the outside edge.

    It goes to show that going back to the drawing board and starting over pays off. That was a beauty.

    That's Broad's first five-for since he took 6-17 at the Wanderers over two years ago. He's gone 45 innings without a five-for, which is his longest spell. It's his 16th overall and his fourth against New Zealand.

    Sodhi c Bairstow b Broad 1 (NZ 231-8)

    Got him! And that's a deserved five-wicket haul for Stuart Broad.

    He's got there with a terrific delivery, tailing in and nipping off the pitch to catch the outside edge of Ish Sodhi's bat, with Jonny Bairstow taking the catch behind.

    The new ball strikes again. How quickly can England get these last two wickets?
