Daryl Mitchell hit a sublime 190 as New Zealand amassed 553 before England started to fight back on a free-scoring second day of the second Test at Trent Bridge. Taking advantage of a docile pitch and lacklustre England bowling, Mitchell pummelled his way to his highest Test score. Tom Blundell joined the run spree with 106 in a 236-run fifth wicket partnership with Mitchell. New Zealand Test debutant Michael Bracewell scored a brisk 49 as New Zealand took control in their bid to level the three-Test series after losing the opener at Lord's by five wickets.
New Zealand's Daryl Mitchell said he has no regrets after falling agonisingly short of a maiden Test double hundred in the second match against England. The middle-order batsman fell after a career-best 190, and his 236-run collaboration with fellow centurion Tom Blundell was the bedrock of New Zealand's robust first innings total of 553 at Trent Bridge. England seamer Matthew Potts denied Mitchell his double hundred by dismissing the number five batsman with a wide, slower delivery.
