  1. Watling named man of the match

    New Zealand wicketkeeper BJ Watling: "It felt really good. The key was to get partnerships and we stuck in there to get close to their total and build as much of a lead as possible. Fortunately the wicket did some funny things on day five.

    "Your job is to play the situation whatever it is. It's about turning up for that situation.

    "It was great to play here at the Mount and really good to see so many people turn up to watch this Test."

    It was always going to be a tough ask today. Stuart Broad pointed out the pitch wasn't bad this morning but he didn't mention scoreboard pressure and the theatre of having people around the bat.

    England didn't quite get their mentality right I don't think. Ben Stokes said runs would be important, but they didn't bat normally, England went nowhere. It's that indecision that cost Joe Root his wicket.

  3. What England think is batting big, is batting medium.

    The tourists were 277-4 on day two and decided that was enough patience, time to play some shots.

    The result - 353 all out.

    BJ Watling and Mitchell Santner showed the folly of that by waiting until 452-6 at lunch on day four before ramping it up.

  4. How's stat?!

    Of the last eight times England have batted first in a Test and made 350+ they have now lost four by an innings.

    New Zealand have given England an object lesson as England look to press the reset button on the way they play Test cricket. They've seen how you do it, you bat long, you're patient with bat and ball, you take your catches and you set intelligent fields. If you do all those things and have a little bit of luck along the way then you've got a chance of winning Test matches.

  6. Those three wickets last night by Mitchell Santner were crucial. It gave New Zealand plenty of belief and time to get the final seven today.

    England did have periods where they looked very solid but this side have repeatedly shown that lapses in concentration are never far away.

    Joe Denly was got out by a brilliant delivery. The rest was batsman error.

    Four years ago, England came to New Zealand and the Kiwis showed them how to play one-day cricket and now as England are searching for a new style, New Zealand have showed them how to play Test cricket.

  8. BroadReuters

    So New Zealand take a 1-0 lead in the two-match Test series.

    If the World Cup final victroy was the barest of margins for England, that win is pretty much the widest of margins for New Zealand.

    BJ Watling, Mitchell Santner, Neil Wagner especially, take a bow. Tremendous performances.

    Congratulations New Zealand. It's only the third time they've beaten England by an innings. That is quite a thumping.

    NZ WIN BY AN INNINGS & 65 RUNS

    It was very, very out.

    New Zealand pulverise England by an innings and 65 runs.

    Fittingly for England, the final wicket is a golden duck, with Stuart Broad trapped plumb in front by a low full toss.

    A masterful performance by New Zealand. A dire one by England.

    New Zealand are celebrating, Stuart Broad is reviewing it. I suppose he has to.

  12. England review

    Short ball trap set but Neil Wagner bluffs and sends down a low full toss.

    Stuart Broad misses and is hit in front. Up goes the finger.

    Broad reviews.

    I was just about to say this pair could bat out the final 22 overs...

    The fielder had been placed there and Neil Wagner looked particularly pleased as though a plan had come off.

    WICKET

    Archer c sub (Henry) b Wagner 30 (Eng 197-9)

    Oh dear.

    Jofra Archer flicks it off his hips and straight down the throat of sub fielder Matt Henry at deep backward square leg.

    Not an overly surprising end for Archer, who often has a reckless shot or two in him, but disappointing given how he had played so far. Still, a more encouraging knock for Archer the batsman.

    That's four for Neil Wagner - can he complete a five-wicket haul?

  16. Mark Ramprakash

    It's been fascinating to watch these two youngsters bat. Yes, there's not the same expectation on them but they've looked comfortable.

  17. Simon Mann

    New Zealand are not getting fidgety yet. There's still plenty of time for them.

  18. Eng 197-8

    Curran 29, Archer 30

    Sam Curran inside edges behind square, cries of 'catch' but no fielder there.

    Curran brings out the sweep but finds the man round the corner for no run.

    Cries of 'catch' again off the last but Curran didn't nick it, just off the pad.

    That was a very testing maiden over from Mitchell Santner.

  19. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    This is what you want from the pitch on the fifth day.

  20. Eng 197-8

    Yikes. Mitchell Santner gets one to skid on very low out of the footmarks and it just misses Sam Curran's off stump.
