    72.1 nicked off! 'Noooooooo!' exclaims Latham. And, of course, it's Stokes who does the trick! Tired prod at a good length ball, audible edge behind, and Smith holds this one. England finally have something to celebrate, and Stokes does so fairly vigorously, given the long day in the dirt he and his team-mates have endured 317/1
    73.1 Root continues round the wicket, mishit leg side... and taken! One brings two, the old cliche strikes. An excellent running catch by the sub, Matt Fisher, at wide long-on. Conway had begun to look a bit like he wanted to hit out or get out. He manages both, and NZ are suddenly two down 319/2
    84.1 Archer rips out another! Back of a length, draws a tame prod in the channel and the ball visibly deflects off the edge through to Smith! Decent delivery, but did Nicholls have to play at it? Anyhoo. What an extraordinary finish to a sweat-soaked day in the dirt for England, two in two turning 361 for 2 into 361 for 4 361/4
    83.6 skied and taken behind the stumps! Bashir's effort indirectly brings about a wicket! Atkinson strikes in the dying embers of the day, and England will walk off a little feeling a little cheerier. Wow! Root immediately pointed to Bashir and ran in his direction, followed by Stokes. Not a great shot from Ravindra, with stumps looming. England crowbar out a third 361/3
