    The cloud cover is starting to increase. There are still nice outdoor conditions though.

    Andrew Steadman: Zak Crawley scores a five with his first test involvement. Superb.

  3. NZ 39-1

    Latham 30, Williamson 4

    It's still a little leggy from Sam Curran but it only costs him a single this time, and then Kane Williamson gets in on the act with a nurdle through square leg.

    Just the 10 runs from the over...

    Sam Curran's just got to get a grip here. He's strayed down the leg side, then down to fine leg and through mid-wicket. He's got to find a more consistent line and length.

  5. Bryan Waddle

    Delightful stroke, he's timed that to perfection.

  6. NZ 37-1

    A freebie from Sam Curran, sliding the ball into Tom Latham's pads, and it's so easy for Latham to nudge it away to the boundary.

    And that's four more! Terrific from Latham, this time dispatching Curran through mid-wicket and into the boundary boards.

    Mark Vernon: The real question is will Aggers voice hold out for the entire 5 days...?

  8. How's stat?!

  9. NZ 29-1

    This latest Chris Woakes delivery stays low, horribly low, in fact, and it almost scuttles underneath the bottom of Kane Williamson's bat as he tries to defend.

    Williamson contents himself with popping the rest of the over away off his pads.

    You used to love that in the dressing room if there was freebies around. Zak Crawley was right to have to a shy. Dom Sibley couldn't quite get across, but he did have the pads on to be fair.

  11. NZ 29-1

    Latham 21, Williamson 3

    A sumptuous straight drive from Tom Latham goes back down the ground for four.

    Chris Woakes huffs, shrugs his shoulders, and is left even less unimpressed when Zak Crawley, trying to stop a Latham single, shies at the stumps, misses by a mile and coughs up four overthrows. Ouch.

    Sam Curran gives England something else with the ball. I thought he bowled quite well in the first Test. He's a guy who can bring left-arm variation and he often makes things happen.

  14. NZ 20-1

    Sam Curran goes for a yorker first up that Kane Williamson half-taps away from his toes, before he lets a wide delivery go swinging through to Ollie Pope.

    Ooh, that's a play and a miss, though! Williamson is just tempted into a little nibble outside his off stump, and he leaves the last ball well alone.

  15. A double change for England, with Sam Curran coming on.

    A lot of people say you should give the new ball to your fastest bowler, but Jofra Archer doesn't get a lot of lateral movement. By giving the ball to Chris Woakes they'll be hoping to get more movement because he'll pitch it up more.

  18. NZ 20-1

    Shot! Hello, Kane Williamson. He rises up on his tip-toes and punches a Chris Woakes delivery away off the back foot to get himself under way.

    Woakes' beard is splendid, by the way, very sculptured and all, but it's not beating Williamson's chin scruff.

  19. Well then.

    An early change - Jofra Archer is off and Chris Woakes and his superb new beard is on.

    England are attacking the top of off stump. In the first over it looked like Stuart Broad was getting the ball to come back in to the left-hander but since then he's pointed the seam towards first slip and he's got the ball moving away and he looks a lot more threatening doing that.
