    Yet another great day.
    Joe Root & Bairstow
    Swann & Finn - haha great stuff!

    I don't understand why they didn't enforce follow-on. (Botham, Atherton, Hussain - all were unified in befuddlement). They had bowled only about 40 overs and Finn/Swann were raring to go. NZ's only spinner is Williamson - not to be feared on the last day at all. Very safe and unbecoming of a team that should fight back to the top spot.

    That said, Cook in flow - a joy. Yes, I said joy. Just to be clear you heard it, joy.
    The drives he laid into, playing within, leaving and punishing looseners. Precisely what makes English cricket enjoyable.

    Compton may be dropped He was unnecessarily defensive.
    Vaganam wants Root to open instead, so KP can be back in the middle. I say make KP often if he wants to be in. Or Bell. Why fiddle with Root, who is doing well where he is.

    What's come over Trott? He has gone overboard with his defensiveness. He played relatively freely in NZ. Now he is back to over-respecting the bowlers - like he did when he was in India.

    England shouldn't bat much longer than lunch. Cook has unnecessarily put himself in a spot where he has to make a declaration that may backfire with too much sun and Ross Taylor, or be defensive and declare too late (like post tea).

    Hoping for another rout.

    Too bad for England.

    1.05pm: I'm afraid the news isn't good (if you're an England supporter). Just heard that it's raining hard at Headingley.
    @InnoBystander: "Worrying element is the rain that has formed to the North East of the lower rain band - this is the stuff heading to Leeds..."
    David Lloyd tweets: "Weather improving"
    Rajan: "It all boils down to Cook's reservation in declaring yesterday, in spite of the lead swelling big. I hope they learn a lesson. Sporting spirit is when you give the opponents a chance to sniff victory even if it is on the outside. What Cook did yesterday is deplorable!"

    12.30, lunch And now we have heavier rain and the umpires are taking the players off. And that will be an early lunch. Only 45 minutes play this morning, England have managed to nip out a couple of wickets, including Brendon McCullum to a superb return catch from Stuart Broad and Graeme Swann completing a five-wicket haul, but once again all eyes are skywards as we wait for a break in the clouds. Regardless of the weather, they'll be no action for 40 minutes, after which Kanishkaa will return...

    Sangu scored 319 against Bangi's ... Nice to see a 300+ personal score after a long time, when it was scored last?
