Summary

Elly Oldroyd is joined by former England batter Mark Ramprakash & the BBC’s Chief Cricket Reporter Stephan Shemilt for reaction to Day 3 of the third and final Test between England and New Zealand.

England Assistant Coach Marcus Trescothick gives his thoughts on the day’s play and the injury to captain Ben Stokes.

They discuss what that injury could mean moving forwards, New Zealand’s decision to not declare and Zak Crawley’s never-ending struggles against Matt Henry. Mark also reminisces on the time he spent giving Kane Williamson batting tips when he was playing in England at the start of his career.

They also touch on England Women’s impressive day with the bat on Day 1 of their Test against South Africa.
