90th over: New Zealand 326-4 (Mitchell 82, Blundell 73) The wind gusts and Broad’s hair blows upwards like cress growing out of a boiled egg shell. Blundell leans into a wide one and cuts skilfully throught the slips for four. A couple of sweet inswingers bring no reward.
89th over: New Zealand 320-4 (Mitchell 82, Blundell 67) Anderson picks up where he left off yesterday – though, as they point out on the radio, he and Broad have switched ends. A touch of swing and its a maiden.
