Follow the latest reaction after England beat New Zealand in the second Test at Trent Bridge

Ben Stokes on second Test and Potts' progress

Jonny Bairstow blasted a match-winning 136 from 92 balls to lead England to a remarkable five-wicket, second Test victory over New Zealand on Tuesday.

New Zealand were bowled out for 284 before lunch, setting England a target of 299 to win - the highest ever to claim a Test victory at Trent Bridge. England were 139 for four at tea, having lost star man Joe Root for three, with the game in the balance.

But then Bairstow and skipper Ben Stokes ripped the New Zealand attack apart in devastating fashion, hammering 102 in the first nine overs after the interval. In total, their partnership was worth 179 runs in 20.1 overs.

Bairstow flew to his century in 77 balls - the second fastest test century by an England player, one ball slower than Gilbert Jessop's record against Australia at The Oval in 1902. Stokes, battling a knee injury, was unbeaten on 75 as he hit the winning runs.

England 291-5, need 299 to win

14 runs left to win for England as Trent Boult continues to bowl at Ben Stokes.

The England captain blocks the first couple of deliveries before clearing his front leg and launching the ball into the stands for another six!

Eight runs required now.

England 285-5, need 299 to win

Dropped! Matt Henry sends one in on a good length and Foakes is through his shot too early. He pushes at the ball and knocks it to Bracewell at cover, he has three chances to grab at the ball as he drops to his right but fumbles them and the ball spills loose!

England 285-5, need 299 to win

A short arm jab off the hip from Ben Foakes sees him collect his second boundary of the day. England aren’t in a hurry to knock off these runs, they’re just taking advantage of the loose balls now.

England 281-5, need 299 to win

Ben Foakes seems pretty composed. He’s been in decent nick with the bat and works Trent Boult away for a two before turning one round the corner for a single to fine leg.

New Zealand are keeping the field orthodox to Stokes now. No more giving him ones. He sees out the over and England need 18 more runs to win.

England 278-5, need 299 to win

Close! Stokes pushes the ball back at Henry and looks to steal a single but the bowler leaps to his right, stops the ball and has a shy at the stumps which just flies wide. Stokes dives back to the crease but he would have been short of his ground.

Keep your head Ben Stokes. 21 runs needed to win.

England 277-5, need 299 to win

Matt Henry is brought back on and New Zealand push the field back to give Stokes a single which he takes. They want to target Ben Foakes as the new batter.

It doesn’t work as Foakes pulls one away to the midwicket boundary for his first four.

England 272-5, need 299 to win

There’s a bit of admin still to do for England. The draw is out of the question but Ben Stokes and Ben Foakes need to marshall England to the close.

Another couple of wickets and New Zealand will feel like they can clean up the tail. Foakes sees out the over.

27 runs to win.

Wicket! Bairstow c Blundell b Boult 136, England 272-5, need 299 to win

Jonny Bairstow’s fantastic innings comes to an end. Boult directs the ball across Bairstow who looks to cut it once again. He gets a little feather on the ball as it flies through to the wicketkeeper and has to depart.

He’s done his job though. England only require 27 runs to win now.

The Trent Bridge crowd rise to their feet to cheer him off as he walks back to the pavilion. Well batted Jonny Bairstow.

England 272-4, need 299 to win

A follow-up leg stump half-volley from Boult is flicked away by Bairstow and he collects another boundary!
