Stuart Broad to Tom Latham
4000 RUNS IN TEST CRICKET FOR TOM LATHAM! Fine milestone for the stand-in captain, who has become a rock in New Zealand's batting now. Gets there with a gentle push towards point for a single.

Stuart Broad to Will Young
Full, outside off, pretty wide, left alone.
5.3

Stuart Broad to Will Young
A quick short ball, outside off, coming in, Will Young looks to pull but misses and is hit just over the box. Ouch.
5.4
0
Stuart Broad to Will Young
 Full, outside off, tempting to be driven, Young is not the one to be tempted.
5.5

Stuart Broad to Will Young
 Landed outside off, again an indecision from Will. He wants to play at this one but then realizes that it is too wide to be played at. Lets it pass.

Stuart Broad to Will Young
Play and a miss! This small passage of play is testing New Zealand's batting skills. Are they looking at this game already done and dusted with? Their minds don't seem to be on the game at present. Full, wide outside off, swinging away, WY plays an airy-fairy drive and misses comprehensively. No feet movement.

James Anderson to Tom Latham
Around off, coming in, pushed towards mid on.

James Anderson to Tom Latham
On a good length, around middle, pushed uppishly towards mid on. Drops down on the pitch.

James Anderson to Tom Latham
FOUR! MARVELLOUS! On a length, around middle, Tom Latham drives this straight back down the ground, through the vacant mid on region. Moves to 10 and New Zealand need 17 more.

James Anderson to Tom Latham
Outside off, on a length, let through.

James Anderson to Tom Latham
This one bounce off a length, around middle and leg, Latham looks to tuck it away but the ball suddenly shoots up, hits the glove and lobs towards square leg. The impact forces the bat to be pushed away from the hand.

Stuart Broad to Tom Latham
A short ball, outside off, Latham bails out of the pull. A late call of WIDE by the square leg umpire Richard Kettleborough. Broad is a bit disgruntled by that.

Stuart Broad to Tom Latham
DIRECT HIT WOULD HAVE GOT LATHAM. Around middle, Tom pushes it towards mid on and sets off for a quick single. Mark Wood comes in quickly, gets to the ball, dives and then attempts an under-arm throw at the bowler's end. Misses the stumps. It is a NO BALL as well. The stand moves to 21.

James Anderson to Will Young
Outside off, pretty wide, fractionally short, there to be cut and Will cuts. But there is no will to move his feet and he gets a bottom edge which goes on the bounce to the slip cordon.

Olly Stone to Will Young
OUT! BOWLED! A drag on. Young never looked settled at the crease. Was always trying to play a bit too many shots without much feet movement. A length ball, outside off, Will Young plays a pretty loose shot, aiming to hit this through the covers but the feet don't move and the result is an inside edge, which hits the stumps.

FOUR! SCORES LEVEL! Around middle and leg, Latham just helps it through square leg and the ball races away. Would he hit the winning run (s) as well?

Mark Wood to Tom Latham
FOUR! SPLENDID WIN FOR NEW ZEALAND! Outside off, on a length, Tom Latham just guides it behind point and then punches his fists in the air. Then runs down the track and punches fists with Ross Taylor, before embracing him. VICTORY BY 8 WICKETS AND SERIES WON 1-0!
