    Target 273

    A yelp of an appeal is stifled by Neil Wagner as he hits Rory Burns high on the pad, before he finds the outside edge of Burns' bat which drops just short of a tumbling Tim Southee at slip.

    A very good maiden to start.

    I'm just going to draw your attention to this truly spectacular grab by our very own Alex Hartley...

    England should be trying to get the runs but I am not sure whether they are.

    A lonely single is all that comes from this latest Mitchell Santner over.

    Elizabeth Taylor used to make the sandwiches for the Hollywood Cricket Club in LA in the 60s and 70s. Laurence Olivier, Olivia de Havilland, Joan Fontaine and David Niven were also regular spectators.

    There's a spot outside Rory Burns' off stump that if you hit it it flies.

    Target 273

    Something's just starting to happen here.

    Rory Burns gets struck again on the hand by Tim Southee, targeting a rough bit on the pitch, the ball just lifting out of seemingly nowhere. It drops just short of a diving Tom Latham at second slip.

    If you tire of Mark Wood then you tire of life, in my opinion.

    Slow going for England so far in the fourth innings...

    Burns 22, Sibley 13

    I don't want to alarm anyone, but it is starting to spin.

    Dom Sibley gets a thick outside edge off a drive, not where he intended, but he picks up three as Devon Conway does the tidying up in the deep.

  14. Eng 40-0published at 18.1 overs

    Oh! Rory Burns almost holes out first ball!

    A full toss, Burns gets in a tangle, loops it up into the air and he's lucky that it's just short of an advancing Neil Wagner at mid-on.

    Spin! Here's Mitchell Santner.

    Umpire's call on impact and the ball is missing the stumps.

    Tim Southee's not... amazing at DRS.

    Sibley was a long way across.

    Dom Sibley shuffled a long way across but I think this is missing.

    Tim Southee wants this lbw against Dom Sibley so much.
