    A flurry of action after lunch on the opening day of the second cricket test between New Zealand and England at Wellington

    A flurry of action after lunch on the opening day of the second cricket test between New Zealand and England at Wellington


    The visitors are 222 for six.

    Harry Brook has scored his eighth century, his seventh away from home and third against the Black Caps.

    He reached the mark in 91 balls, triggering the Barmy Army chant of his name to the tune of Boney M's Daddy Cool.

    Will O'Rourke has ended the 174-run fifth-wicket partnership by forcing Ollie Pope on 66 to top-edge a steepler to Rachin Ravindra who circled under a steepler at short leg.

    Ben Stokes has now nicked off to Tom Latham at second slip from O'Rourke for two.
