A perfect day from England took them to the brink of victory in Mount Maunganui after a spectacular four-wicket spell of bowling from Stuart Broad backed up vital half centuries from Joe Root, Harry Brook and Ben Foakes.
England are playing cricket on easy mode. Their batters are operating with arrogance and aggression, whilst their bowlers are relentless in their accuracy and exceptional in their execution. Broad’s four wickets under the lights were all clean bowled, a perfect snapshot of the dominance that England have had over their hosts throughout.
