  1. Jeremy Coney
    Ex-New Zealand captain on Test Match Special

    We are into Vince-watch territory. History says there is going to be a flick to second slip soon.

  2. Eng 75-1

    Vince 30, Stoneman 29

    Ooft. Neil Wagner's not that far away from taking James Vince's outside edge, as he pitches the ball up and Vince tries one of those flirty little drives.

    There's a bit of away movement there for Wagner, as Vince mis-times a cover drive, but he pulls a single from the final ball of the over.

  3. Neil Wagner is about to replace Colin de Grandhomme.

  4. Jeremy Coney
    Ex-New Zealand captain on Test Match Special

    I feel for Ish Sodhi. He's always left until the very last option and Kane Williamson allows batsmen to get in before bowling him. I feel he should have come on before Colin de Grandhomme, especially against an opener who might not be so accustomed to spin.

  5. Eng 74-1

    Lead by 103

    On to the back foot hops James Vince, and he pushes a single into the covers off Ish Sodhi to bring up the fifty partnership between these two.

    England's lead has crept over the hundred mark too.

  6. Get Involved - loving the Sir RIchard Hadlee interview

    Text 81111

    Without doubt this is the best interview on TMS there has ever been. I've been listening for over 45 years. Richard Hadlee speaks so much sense. So refreshing to hear a former GREAT player to speak so modestly and not hark on about "so much better in my day, blah blah blah " is so refreshing. He is a great student of the game and respects the history whilst also embracing the modern.

    You can now download the interview as a podcast here.

  7. Eng 72-1

    A no ball from Colin de Grandhomme spoils what had been a very tidy over, but he makes up for his overstep by keeping James Vince on the defensive.

  8. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    It looks really good for batting at the moment. Cash in if you can.

  9. Eng 70-1

    Ish Sodhi loops his first ball up and finds Mark Stoneman's outside edge, but the ball dribbles past short leg and Stoneman jogs a single.

    James Vince then tries to paddle sweep Sodhi round the corner, and just about avoids guiding the ball into the waiting fielder's hands at leg slip. That could have been fairly embarrassing.

  10. Drinks over and done with, it's time for a bit of spin.

    Leggie Ish Sodhi is into the attack.

  11. Cook's worst series?

  12. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match Special

    That's straight out of the coaching manual with a bit of a flourish on top as well.

  13. Eng 67-1

    Vince 26, Stoneman 26

    A loose sort of drive from James Vince and he gets a thick inside edge, but the ball bounces past the stumps and away to allow them to nab a couple.

    Vince tries the same shot again before Colin de Grandhomme spears one tantalisingly past his outside edge, squaring Vince up.

    Advantage Vince, though, with a beautiful straight drive that goes past the bowler and away for four. Time for drinks.

  14. Get Involved - the Cook debate

    #bbccricket

    George Garrett: Surely it's all about what Cook gets up to with Essex at the start of the County Championship now. Five games - score plenty like last year and there's no way England will go two Tests with Pakistan and five with India without him.

    Bobby: If Cook is picked against Pakistan he'll play well against inferior opposition to paper over the huge cracks... until the next big hitter side rolls into town and they dismantle him again. Time he was put out to pasture.

  15. Eng 61-1

    James Vince pulls Neil Wagner for a leisurely single, before Mark Stoneman tucks himself under a well-directed short ball.

  16. Vic Marks
    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    If James Vince got 70 then I think that would be enough for him to be back this summer.

    I can't remember anyone else who has looked so good and scored so few runs throughout their Test career.

  17. Eng 60-1

    Lead by 89

    Mark Stoneman cuts and not even a cartwheeling Kane Williamson can stop the ball from racing away square to the boundary.

    Stoneman mutters to himself as he's tempted into a looser drive against Colin de Grandhomme, miming the way the ball moves with his hand, before seeing out the rest of the over.

  18. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match Special

    What a shot by James Vince. You see that and the cover drive by Mark Stoneman the previous over and you wonder why we're concerned about England's top order. Yet concerned we are.

  19. Eng 56-1

    Full, wide and driven away to the boundary by James Vince. It is such a gorgeous shot.

    Wagner's response is to sneak the final ball of the over past Vince's outside edge as he prods forward.

  20. And here is Neil Wagner, replacing Trent Boult and his figures of 8-1-23-1.
