Aggressive England takes the lead in the series 2-0
Bairstow and Stokes had joined forces with 93-4 in the 26th in another promising entry from rising Alex Lees (44 of 81 deliveries) that Southee had finished.
Lees had thrown the first two balls of the chase, thrown by Southee, through the offside of four to reaffirm that England only had designs to win the game, not to tie.
This contrasted sharply with the Lord’s test against New Zealand a year ago, when the hosts had opted not to chase 273 of 75 overs and instead headed for a stalemate.
Alex Lees continued his upward trajectory with an enterprising score of 44
Stokes and new coach Brendon McCullum have completely changed that mindset, as demonstrated by the way England went home on Tuesday evening, fans who had taken advantage of the offer of free tickets for the fifth day were really rewarded for do it.
Things seemed complicated for England when a double attack after lunch – Ollie Pope snick Henry from behind for 18 and Joe Root caught and thrown by Boult for three – left them swaying 56-3 in the 16th, Zak Crawley (0) then looked at a Boult cutter behind 10 balls towards the chase.

Boult was the last man out, dressing James Anderson (2-20) halfway through, after Stuart Broad (3-70) rejected Henry (18) and Kyle suffered a back injury. Jamieson (1) from the port … Henry couldn’t resist grabbing the hook after England moved the man to the bottom.
Henry should have dropped to the second ball of the day when he was only eight, but Root slipped low after Jack Leach induced the edge with a delivery that he grabbed and straightened – Root received a thumbs-up as he tried capture and temporarily left the field for treatment.
Root was well on his way to baptism, though he only lasted four balls, unable to back up his first 176 innings, which was his fourth century in his last five trials and his 10th in his last 22 .
