  1. 50 runs

    50 for Sodhi

    Malan drags it down and Sodhi thwacks it away to the mid-wicket fence.

    And that's his fifty! A truly brilliant, gritty innings and a well-deserved half-century.

  2. This is the last scheduled over of play. There is more time to make up the final hour though so we may get a couple more.

    Dawid Malan to bowl it...

    There were arms raised for everything there, and umpire Oxenford ignored whatever they were asking for.

  4. NZ 248-7

    One over left

    More sterling work from Wagner has he defends all six balls.

    The last flicks off his pads and is caught by one of the three short legs.

    Appeal but that was nowhere near the bat.

  5. Graeme Swann
    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    We now have eight men around the bat, and Stuart Broad at a short, catching mid-off.

  6. Only seven wickets have fallen in the evening session across this Test.

    Well 10 is a nice, round number. But I don't think England are getting these last three.

    Jack Leach continues...

    It is distinctly nippy out there now.

  8. Andrew Samson

    This is now the latest we've played on any of the five days.

  9. NZ 248-7

    Two overs left

    Haha. Joe Root bowls a bouncer to finish his over and Jonny Bairstow takes it high above his head.

    Don't think the umpires were too impressed by that.

    No wickets. No runs. As per.

  10. Graeme Swann
    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    It feels like it's gone now. There won't be the time for two more batsmen to walk out.

  11. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match Special

    The sun has gone again, there's some cloud out there now, and if it goes behind that cloud, that might be it.

    It looks like they've already been told they have to bowl spin. It's Root, or Leach, or bust.

  12. It's very gloomy out there now and it looks like the umpires have told Joe Root he can't bowl the quicks anymore.

    The captain has brought himself on.

  13. Graeme Swann
    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Andrew, is there any record for the most amount of fielders with helmets on around the wicket?

    Andrew Samson: This might be it.

  14. NZ 248-7

    Three overs left

    Leach starts round then goes over the wicket to Wagner but can't spark anything.

    A maiden.

    A wicket an over needed.

  15. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match Special

    New Zealand have really knuckled down, especially in the second half of the day.

    Props to my six-month-old baby for needing a bottle at 6am meaning I can now follow the last overs (from my bed).

  17. NZ 248-7

    Four overs left

    It's Anderson, so of course the line and length are impeccable.

    Until the last one, that is - a bouncer that Sodhi ducks under easily to mark 150 balls at the crease.

    What a magnificent effort from the leg-spinner.

  18. James Anderson is back into the attack.

    Time for heroes.

  19. Graeme Swann
    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    These low chances that the England fielders aren't getting to - it's because they come up with the ball. They come up on their haunches with the shot and their hands lift - and the momentum means you can't get back down.

    If you watch the Sri Lankans, who are the world's best around the bat, they don't ever come up. It is very, very hard to do if you're not used to doing it.

  20. NZ 248-7

    Five overs left

    Leach changes angle and goes round the wicket to Wagner, trying to push the ball across him.

    Shouts of catch as the ball deflects towards short leg but that was off Wagner's pads.
