NZ should never be offered only two Tests again in England - almost an insult with the wonderful approach they have brought to this series.

The truth is that NZ should have had a 5 test series.
The English summers are now very strange and I dunno if it's money the ECB are after.
England are playing 7 tests and numerous ODIs - this summer they could have easily dropped the ODI and T20 games against NZ and added a 3rd test.

Good knock by McCullum. I thought he was unlucky to be given out lbw.

McCullum ends the onslaught by declaring on 454-8 to set Eng 455 to win.
New Zealand make it first time in history of Tests that 8 batsmen have hit a six in the same innings.
hammer time, tek that you likkle punk
90.6 Broad to Henry, SIX, short again, pulled again, six again...Henry dispatches another one deep square leg 90.5 Broad to Henry, no run, fuller and pushed across from round the wicket, a big swing and a miss 90.4 Broad to Henry, SIX, short and hammered! Had his sighter and not dispatches this one over the deep square-leg boundary...Carnage! 90.3 Broad to Henry, no run, falls into space! Sums it up for England. Henry pulls a short delivery and it goes straight up in the air, but there's no one close enough on the leg side and Broad can't get to it either shadowmancer: "One day Southee will get his Century and that day will be glorious"
90.2 Broad to Craig, 1 run, short and pulled to deep square leg 90.1 Broad to Craig, SIX, that's stunning, was a back-of-a-length delivery and Craig has driven it straight down the ground for six
