2 ridiculous LBW reviews from NZ, both were obviously hitting the pad outside the line. Taters saying NZ reviewed because it was Root.

Simon Dool saying if that was him he’d be off the pitch getting his eyes checked.

England 64-2, require another 232…

England in a Nelson, where Dicky Bird when you need him…

50 up for Pope.

117-2

100 run partnership between Root and Pope…

England 153-2, more than half way through the run chase…

Root 50 up, his 54th for England

England 183-2 from 39 overs at stumps, that’s a run rate of over 4.5 without any slogging…

Bairstows’ current stats.

Currently 40 of 25 balls

Bairstow 61 from 42
Root 86 from 121

England need 10 more runs to win. Root not going to get his century then, unless he scores 2 fours and a six, in that order.

And Bairstow hits a 4 and then a (massive) 6 to win it for England, remarkable
