The rains expected over the weekend are probably not going to be enough to guarantee this game will go to five days. But the look of the pitch - the beigest so far this series - a day out suggests it will require a decent amount of graft from the bowlers to prise 20 wickets. England chose to bowl first at Trent Bridge last week and conceded 553, and though that worked out fine in the end, it's probably not an approach they'll look to take again.

Michael Bracewell to Crawley, holes out to cover! Williamson is the man,
and that's a poor end to an innings that was just beginning to find some form

Has anyone considered that New Zealand might not be that good & they are coming to an end of a cycle.
This NZ team lost a test at home to Bangladesh!
The same side we are handing out licks to.
They've now been whitewashed by the same England we lenged down a few months back

Time will tell how Englands brand of cricket travels; but its such a pleasing a start for Rob Key, Ben Stokes and Baz McCulllum.
