End of the match: England won by 5 wickets | |||
08:13 GMT: Well, England's "Root" to success continues, they have won the 3-match series 2-1. New Zealand at one time were looking dangerous because they took quick wickets but England's Joe Root stood tall and told the opposition what he can do with the willow. There can be no Man of the Match in this series. So join us on the 06th of March for the 1st Test. Till then good bye | |||
