Colin de Grandhomme also made 65 runs and the three batsmen put the hosts in the driver’s seat. The three batsmen made a mockery out of the England bowlers as they were blazing guns and looked very determined to not let go off the match quite easily. The hosts declared their first innings on 615 runs in response to England’s 353. Mitchell Santner once again proved to be the man of the moment as he snapped three wickets and bowled at a stunning economy of 0.69. He got the crucial wickets of Rory Burns, Dom Sibley and Jack Leach. By the end of the day, the scoreboard read 55 runs for the loss of three wickets.

New Zealand needs seven wickets to win the match but they still have their best batsmen Joe Root and Ben Stokes to bat. A lot will rely on the two and the team will surely look upon them.
