    With that delivery there, Chris Woakes is probably asking Kumar Dharmasena 'why didn't you give that out?' It was so full.

  2. Not outpublished at 02:05 Greenwich Mean Time 29 November 2019

    It has pitched just, and I mean just, outside leg stump. Not out. England lose their review but you can't really blame them for going for that.

    It's very, very tight.

    There's no bat. It's hitting the stumps but is all about whether it has pitched outside leg.

    Where has this one pitched?

  6. England reviewpublished at 02:04 Greenwich Mean Time 29 November 2019

    You've gotta review this. England need a wicket and this is close.

    It's very full from Woakes to Latham and hit the pad. Dharmasena said no but Root does send it upstairs.

    Chris Woakes is back, by the way.

  8. NZ 140-2published at 45 overs

    Latham 79, Taylor 47

    We may be seeing why it took Ben Stokes so long to have a bowl. He does not look comfortable. He's hobbling back to his mark a little and at the end of the over he has a pause in the middle of the pitch, bending over and sticking his fingers in that left knee.

    This is the second hundred partnership between this pair in Test cricket. They've got eight fifty partnerships too.

    There's no stopping that though. Latham has crunched this to the boundary off his toes. Latham looks like he could score 200 today.

  11. NZ 135-2published at 44.2 overs

    That's top work from Jofra Archer on the boundary rope with a goalkeeper-style dive to prevent Latham getting another four.

    He rightly gets a good clap from Stokes.

    England are trying to protect Ben Stokes. He has got something going on with his knee.

    It is starting to cloud over too. There is some talk there could be some showers later.

    Ben Stokes! It's only taken 44 overs.

    It looks flat. England are struggling.

  17. NZ 133-2published at 43.4 overs

    Oh, Zak. England's debutant does all of the hard work in chasing a fine Taylor drive down around the boundary. He picks the ball up in his right hand and tries to flick the ball back but only throws it into his own leg. The ball then dribbles into the rope.

    Stuart Broad's reaction was hilarious - he was into a mini-celebration and then he appealed.

    Latham 71, Taylor 43

    Tom Latham has batted brilliant for his 71 runs. That edge to Stokes is the only chance he has given. He has nailed everything else. Even this push down the ground comes right out of the middle.

    There's just not conclusive evidence to overturn that decision.
