Comments have now been closed for this article I am delighted to see Broad get his chance and he has delivered to great effect. Anderson has proven that he can do it at test level. Hoggard and Harmison will need a lot of hard work to get to any kind of level worthy of pulling on an England shirt. Good luck to the lads and lets hope they bring it home in the final test.

NZ might have scored more boundaries due to tired legs on the elder statesmen but the old heads would know how to bowl, catch and play their shots; this result was achieved merely out of application.
