You can't beat a crowd. Without a crowd, you sort of think 'what's the point?'

The players are out in the middle. Dan Lawrence has the ball in hand.

The crowd are noisy this morning.

New Zealand will resume on 229-3, a deficit of 74.

Ross Taylor is unbeaten on 46, and he'll be joined by Henry Nicholls after the loss of Will Young off the final ball of yesterday's play.

Dan Lawrence will have three balls to bowl to complete the 77th over, and then about 15 minutes into the session the new ball will be available.

Who will Joe Root turn to? Will it be the experience of James Anderson and Stuart Broad? Or will he go with the pace of Mark Wood?

We should have a lovely day at Edgbaston.

England will be hoping there isn't too much sun poking through that cloud.

Dan Lawrence might have got that crucial breakthrough for England late last night, but there weren't many compliments for his bowling action.

The decision incensed Stuart Broad, who wants the International Cricket Council (ICC) to make a rule change now.

"You only need to look at Zak’s reaction – his fingers were under the ball and look at Joe Root and James Bracey’s reaction a yard away," Broad told BBC Sport.

"The umpires are in a really tricky position, due to the rule that is there from the ICC. Sometimes you can be 40 yards away, with a fielder in your way. The ruling is putting the umpires in a really unfair situation.

"The ICC need to get rid of the soft signal and I wouldn’t be waiting for September or October when the next meeting is. Someone needs to come out now - say that it’s a rule that’s not working, the cons outweigh the pros, and say ‘let’s stop putting our umpires under pressure’ and let the technology make the decision."

One of the main talking points yesterday was whether Zak Crawley had taken a legitimate catch, off Stuart Broad, to dismiss Devon Conway, when the New Zealand opener had made just 22.

The soft signal - made by the on-field umpires to guide the TV umpire - was not out. Michael Gough, who is the TV umpire in this game, couldn't find any conclusive evidence that Crawley took the catch cleanly.

Missed any of the action over the last two days?

These highlights will get you bang up to speed.

Welcome to day three, or moving day as it is commonly known.

Today is going to go a long way to deciding the outcome of this Test, and therefore the series.

That late Dan Lawrence wicket has given England a sniff, especially with the new ball just 3.3 overs away, but they'll need wickets with it.

New Zealand were superb yesterday. Their discipline and willingness to just play sensible Test match cricket is a lesson for England. They are a really strong position and know if they bat for the majority of today they will be favourites to win this Test.

Just how important could this prove to be?
