It was the Jamieson show as he got the better of Bairstow and Crawley. Boult also chipped in with a wicket. However, New Zealand will know it is important to break this stand. The two are well set and have done well so far but if England are to have any chance, they need to play for a long time. Can they do so? We will find out in the next session.

20:45 (IST) Jun 04

A really good session for New Zealand and they have a firm grip over this game. Would have been a better session had Stokes’ dismissal not been a no ball but they’ll still be pretty pleased with how things have gone so far.
