Big blow for NZ with Henry going off.

Stokes' knee not looking good. Hope he doesn't do anything stupid, need him fully ft for the Ashes
Good recovery, especially with Stokes clearly not able to really run or go after it. Long way to go still
How many more do we need before we lose a wicket? I’m thinking at least another 40.
This is so tense
Got to say that Root and Stokes have ridden their luck. Great Test Match.

Well done England - Joe Root is just too good unfortunately. The difference I think is in the strength of the respective sides' bowling attacks - if we had Boult and Jamieson playing, things may have been different.
Nice attempt at a reverse jinx there
What I like is the spirit that NZ and England play cricket against each other. Competitive and respectful.
Stokes did not have to do that. Really silly
Very odd.
Foakes was lucky not to get anything on that.

No jinx, if Root doesn't get out, England win.
