Burns 119, Anderson 2
A solid defensive stroke from Anderson hands the strike back to Rory Burns.
Kane Williamson is bringing himself on for a bit of part-time off-spin.

The crowd has come to life. Again, this is a handy last-wicket partnership.
Jimmy Anderson is stepping away and trying to slog now. I love cricket.

Mostly it was an ugly hundred - but who cares?
Here are a few of the highlights from Burns' innings before he reached his ton...
Trail by 127
Rory Burns is smashing the ball around Lord's in a Test match. What is this magic?
He drives a second successive four but it does leave James Anderson on strike.
Burns turns down a couple of single and then finds the boundary again with a guided prod down through the slips.
Cracked away by Burns! Lovely shot. Four more.

That is the best he has hit the ball today.
Andy Zaltzman
Test Match Special statistician
Rory Burns' century came off 267 balls and contained 11 fours. His first fifty came off 90 balls and his second fifty took 177.
This was his second century in four innings against New Zealand.
This season he averages 72 in first-class cricket.
Trail by 139
Lord's settles down again after that moment of celebration. A lovely, lovely moment for Burns.
A ball later Wagner serves up a full toss and Burns bats it away expertly.
Every run he can get now is important for the game too, taking out time New Zealand will spend setting a target later this afternoon.

Any hundred in a Test at Lord's is a fantastic achievement. We could have two left-handers close to carrying their bat in this match.

He looks delighted. It has been a battle - a real battle. He's had some luck, but that doesn't matter. Mrs Burns is in the crowd with little baby Burns, who has seen Daddy score a hundred at Lord's.
A third Test hundred for Rory Burns!
It has been a bad day for England but the opener has scrapped his way to a gritty hundred, his first since 2019. It gets him on the famous Lord's honour's board too.
There are broad smiles on the England balcony.

Now Burns has got the strike. Does he take a single if they offer him that opportunity?
Burns 98, Anderson 0
"Oh Jimmy, Jimmy," chant the crowd. This is the loudest they've been all day.
England's number 11 fends the final ball awkwardly but safely.
That ball from Jamieson hit Anderson somewhere around his upper thigh. It hurt him. He takes a moment...
