Summary

Jonathan Agnew, Steve Finn and Stephan Shemilt reflect on a fascinating day's play in Mount Manganui, New Zealand. Stuart Broad's bonkers 'Nighthawk' innings is the topic on everyone's lips, but we also hear from Ollie Robinson, who bowled very well to take four wickets. But it was a strong day from New Zealand, too, led by 138 from Tom Blundell. Plus we hear from England bowler Lauren Bell at the T20 World Cup after she was picked up in the Women's IPL auction.
