A back of a length delivery outside off bring about the dismissal of Alex Lees who looks to defend it away from his body and ends up edging it to the ‘keeper to depart for 44. England are 93/4 with skipper Ben Stokes walking out to join Jonny Bairstow, who is batting nicely at the moment.
Earlier, Matt Henry struck to dismiss Ollie Pope, bowling a superb delivery that took the outside edge and landed in the ‘keeper’s hands. Root looked to work the ball but offered a leading edge to hand Trent Boult a return catch, as the former captain departed for 3. All three results are still possible in the Trent Bridge Test.
New Zealand take two quick wickets after Lunch.
