There's the most amazing match going on in Aukland. England need to bat out the day to tie the game and series and they only have 3 wickets in hand. Stuart Broad has so far faced 53 balls and has yet to score a run! There are about 12 more overs to go - 72 more balls. It is amazing how exciting nothing happening can be!

If Broad manages another 3 minutes without scoring or getting out, he will hold the record for the longest spell without scoring in a test match!

And he finally scored 2 runs from the 62nd ball. And Matt Prior has just made his 100.
Only 9 overs left - starting to think England may be playing their get out of jail free card here - which is dangerous thinking.

And Broad is out! With 21 balls to go, Jimmy Anderson, who has had his pads on for 3 hours, has to try to see out the last 3 and a bit overs. What a finish!

One over left. Prior tried to keep the strike but it ran away for 4 - so Monty has to survive 6 balls!
