Have your say on England men this summer

  1. New Zealand 36-2 at drinks

    The ball is going to be changed so the umpires decide to call drinks with two balls of Gus Atkinson's over remaining.

  2. How's stat?!

    With New Zealand already leadiing by more than 100 runs, England need to be careful with their lengths. Of the 30-odd runs New Zealand have scored so far, 14 have come from deliveries pitched on a fuller length, at 7.63 runs per over. England will need to be wary of serving up too many full deliveries at this stage.

  3. NZ 36-2

    Rachin Ravindra with another demonstrative drive.

    He has bit between his teeth as he biffs Gus Atkinson back down the ground for four, beating the diving Ben Stokes at mid-off.

  4. Sir Alastair Cook
    Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    It's better a pitch deteriorating rather than the common theme of them getting better and better.

  5. NZ 32-2

    Henry Nicholls underdoes and refastens the velcro straps on his gloves between deliveries.

    Josh Tongue is honing in on the stumps but Nicholls is pretty stoic.

  6. Sir Alastair Cook
    Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    Archer is coming to his fifth over here, I would just give him one more.

  7. NZ 31-2

    Henry Nicholls late cuts the fourth ball of Jofra Archer's latest over which tests the razor-sharp reflexes of Jacob Bethell at gully.

    Five overs from Archer, and he might be due a break now.

    Another couple of cheap wickets in the next few overs and England are right back in this Test match.

  9. NZ 29-2

    Josh Tongue is tossed the ball by Ben Stokes now.

    He's on the stumps, largely, but Rachin Ravindra thumps his final delivery of the over back down the ground for four.

    Nobody in the stands are leaving their seats at the minute, the cricket is gripping.

  11. NZ 24-2

    Another vicious delivery from Jofra Archer. It's not particularly quick - 83mph - but climbs into Henry Nicholls from back of a length.

    Nicholls sways his head away as the ball fizzes through.

    There is something in it for these bowlers today and batting has become a more difficult art than the previous few days.

  13. NZ 23-2

    Rachin Ravindra gets one in the slot from Gus Atkinson and the Kiwi elegantly drives through the covers for four.

    Perhaps playing aggressively might be New Zealand's route out of a tricky start.

  14. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Sport cricket correspondent at Trent Bridge

    This Test was 317-0 when Conway and Latham were together in the first innings. At Conway's dismissal in the second innings, the Test has since been 487-22.

    The crowd are absolutely behind England here. It feels pretty hostile if you are visiting player.

    WICKET

    Conway c Root b Archer 5 (NZ 12-2)

    Devon Conway flicks Jofra Archer off his pads for a couple after resuming, but he's gone next ball.

    It's another short-ish ball from Archer and Conway just fiddles at it, almost turning his head away again, and it catches the shoulder of the bat.

    No mistake from Joe Root at first slip as he gobbles up the catch.

    Archer had clearly rattled Conway with the delivery which clocked him on the bonce a few balls previously.

  17. NZ 9-1

    Devon Conway is on his feet but there's some adjustments being made to his helmet. We've already lost Blair Tickner replaced as a concussion substitute.

    No limit on the number of players who can be subbed in this manner.

  18. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC Chief Cricket Commentator on Test Match Special

    It was a nasty blow to Devon Conway and this is a lengthy check. It's not easy for batting.

  19. Jeremy Coney
    Former New Zealand captain on BBC Test Match Special

    There has been differential movement and variable bounce in this session. The pitch has something in it and batting has become a bit more difficult than the first couple of days or so.

  20. ouch!

    NZ 9-1

    A brutish short ball from Jofra Archer.

    It's dug into the pitch by the England quick and Devon Conway turns his head away to take evasive action and it clocks him on the side of the helmet.

    We have a concussion check.
