Coming into Day 3, the hosts will be desperate for early inroads. England, on the other hand, have the perfect platform with Brook and Stokes settled at the crease and would be licking their lips at the prospect of building a match-defining lead that could effectively dash New Zealand out of the contest. As Day 3 approaches in this evenly poised Test match, the excitement builds. Join us on Saturday, 30th November, at 10 pm GMT (the previous day) for all the coverage and pre-match analysis. Cheers!
