New Zealand national cricket team are just three wickets away from sealing a Test series victory over England national cricket team after a dramatic final-day collapse in Nottingham.
Chasing a daunting 373, England lost key wickets early on Day 5, including Joe Root and Emilio Gay in quick succession, before Gus Atkinson was dismissed just before lunch. Despite a resilient 75-run partnership between Atkinson and wicketkeeper Jamie Smith, the hosts were left struggling at 191-7, still needing 182 runs for an unlikely win.
The match carries added emotional weight as it marks the final international appearance of England captain Ben Stokes, who announced he will retire from international cricket after a 15-year career. England are now on the brink of a series defeat, with New Zealand aiming for their fourth Test series win in England.
