  1. New Zealand reviewpublished at 26.5 overs

    NZ 71-7

    Anderson raps Kuggeleijn on the pad, it looks good and up goes the finger.

    It's reviewed because why not?

  2. NZ 68-6published at 26 overs

    England need four wickets to win

    Leach finishes the over with a beauty that grips and turns to beat new batter Scott Kuggeleijn as he played back to it.

    Foakes whipped the bails off and the umpire sends it upstairs to make sure the batter's foot was down. It was and on we go.

    WICKETpublished at 25.4 overs

    Bracewell c Brook b Leach 25 (NZ 68-6)

    Soft as you like.

    The ball from Leach just holds in the surface a touch, Michael Bracewell is through the shot early and a leading edge dollies up to Harry Brook at mid-wicket.

    Six down, four to go.

  4. NZ 67-5published at 25 overs

    Target 394

    A maiden to start for Anderson, finding a hint of swing back in to the left-handed Michael Bracewell.

    There was some decent carry through to Ben Foakes, too, after the batter let a full delivery go past outside off.

  5. NZ 67-5published at 24 overs

    Target 394

    Leach finds his area again after that full toss, four from the over.

    It'll be Jimmy Anderson to start from the other end.

  6. NZ 67-5published at 23.2 overs

    Target 394

    First surprise of the day, Jack Leach is bowling the opening over of day four.

    Daryl Mitchell pats the first ball back to him before timing the next - a full toss - through mid-on for four.

    Back to Mount Maunganui and the players are heading out to the middle.

    New Zealand need an improbable 331 more runs to win, England need another five wickets.

  8. England close in on T20 World Cup semi-finalspublished at 00:58 Greenwich Mean Time 19 February 2023

    It wasn't just the men's side who had a successful Saturday, Nat Sciver-Brunt led the way as England claimed a crucial win over India at the Women's T20 World Cup.

    An 11-run victory keeps Heather Knight's side top of their group and means they are on course not only to make the semi-finals but also avoid Australia in the last four.

    England have indeed bowled superbly under the lights. However, they'll hope they won't need to do so again.

    They are unlikely to get the same assistance during daylight hours, though, if the first three days are anything to go by.

    I can't imagine New Zealand will be thinking too much about the 331 more runs they need to win, they'll just want to bat, bat and bat some more and see where it takes them.

    They certainly have it in them to make this hard work for England at the very least.

    England have manufactured bowling with the pink ball under lights twice in this match and have been brilliant at it.

  11. Another record for Broad and Andersonpublished at 00:50 Greenwich Mean Time 19 February 2023

    Amid Broad's madness, another record was clinched.

    When he bowled Devon Conway, Broad and Anderson became Test cricket's most prolific partnership with a combined 1,002 wickets in matches played together.

    That was up to 1,005 by the close of play, putting them four clear of Australian greats Shane Warne and Glenn McGrath.

    "We have the most wickets but I don't think that means we're the best. What McGrath and Warne did for the game was pretty special," Broad said.

    "To have that many wickets is a sign of longevity and how we have always pushed each other to get better. I feel very lucky and blessed to have played in the same era as Jimmy."

    That's right, another remarkable Stuart Broad spell saw New Zealand's top order demolished to leave England five wickets away from another Test win.

    The Black Caps were reduced to 28-5 at one stage and although Daryl Mitchell and Michael Bracewell helped them 'recover' to 63-5 at stumps, their target of 394 looks a long way off as we head into day four.
