The ball was following Mitchell’s bat.

Mitchell and Blundell being a thorn in England’s backside again, Mitchell brings his 50 up with a 6 off of Leach
178-5, 55 runs so far since tea
Blundell given out for tickling a Root ball into Foakes mitt, Blundell reviews straight away.
There was a noise, Erasmus took a while to give him out, however Ultra edge shows nothing.
As you were.

Blundell gone LBW b Potts 55 (122)
DRS has just gone down and he can’t review the decision, umpire took a while to make his mind up so he probably would have reviewed.
243-6
Potts to Blundell, OUT
Big appeal and given! And with no reviews Blundell has to walk! Well now, that was very full, but it was definitely leg-sided… and a suspicion of inside-edge maybe… I daresay there would have been a second opinion taken had one been on offer… another surprise inswinger from Potts, not unlike the one that got away against Mitchell on day one… now then
Switch on after lunch in time to see a Michelle for Leach with 2 wickets in 3 balls.
NZ 329 all out
Note sure what happened before lunch as I was giving blood.
Still that 86 runs to the tail…33 to Southee in 29 balls.
That was a brilliant catch by Bairstow as well, initially he thought the ball was going for six and then he had to make some course corrections before pouching it.
FFS, 63-6, this is more like the England we know and love!

Oh.
Are they even going to make the follow one.
Just after tea and England are 91-6, trailing by 238.
This is a struggle but also interesting, Boult is top notch.
Don’t worry we have Hampshire Hawks to watch on the live stream at 6.30 if you want entertaining Cricket. 
Oh Jesus, more pain, I’m watching the cricket, Glastonbury and the laptop all at once, I’ll think I’ll turn the cricket off to ease myself and state of mind into the weekend.
Yes, we have manged to avoid the follow one.
Currently 142-6, trail by 187
190 -6 trail by139
This series has been amazing, you have to feel a bit for the Kiwi’s as whenever they get on top we pull it out the bag somehow, brilliant viewing though.
