6 talking points including England's team hat-trick and Ben Stokes' lucky reprieve

The first Test between England and New Zealand looks set for a dramatic finish, with the hosts needing 61 runs to win with just five wickets in hand and Joe Root unbeaten on 77.

After resuming on 236-4 with a lead of 227, New Zealand looked to stretch their lead. Daryl Mitchell quickly reached three figures after being left on 97 not out overnight, before an England team hat-trick turned the game on its head.

With the second new ball, England took the remaining six New Zealand wickets in just 8.1 overs to bowl them out for 285. Mitchell was the first wicket to fall, getting caught behind off Stuart Broad for 108.

His dismissal sparked New Zealand's collapse, with two more wickets falling of the next two balls. First, Colin de Grandhomme was run out in bizarre fashion by Ollie Pope, before Broad bowled Kyle Jamieson.

Anderson then pinned Tom Blundell lbw for 96, a heartbreaking end to a brilliant innings, before Matty Potts and Matt Parkinson took the final two wickets. With England need 277 runs to win, Alex Lees and Zak Crawley made a decent start before Lees was bowled by Jamieson for 20.

New Zealand then began to pick up regular wickets after lunch, with Jamieson getting both Crawley and Jonny Bairstow and Trent Boult dismissing Pope. When captain Ben Stokes joined former skipper Joe Root at the crease, England were in real trouble at 69-4.

And things almost got much worse for England when Stokes dragged a delivery onto his own stumps. However, replays showed that De Grandhomme had overstepped and Stokes was handed a lifeline.

Together, he and Root began formed a crucial partnership worth 90 before Jamieson dismissed Stokes for 54. Root brought up his own half-century late in the day and reached the close on 77
