00:00He brought up his 29th test 100 in the first innings look at that record the average of touch over 50

00:13Pushed away

00:20Stumble no no no

00:23The old fake stumble yeah come back to the third we'll run you out

00:30Oh the edge goes directly through the gap

00:36Good length from Wagner that's where he's got to stay with that line that length

00:47Excellent piece of bowling from Wagner takes a good piece of bowling to draw Joe Root into a false shot and he's

00:56They're going to attack him without a doubt

01:00That's a good shot from Root

01:03All the way for six

01:06A little statement

01:10Statement of intent rather early from Joe Root good use of the feet got in line with the ball and just swung through it

01:16Good swing of the bat nice piece of timing well over the boundary and that sends a message to the off spinner

01:23Sweeping again sweep hard as well

01:38It's all on here

01:40Just two good cricket shots first for six and now the hard sweep for four

01:46There is some turn there but there's a dilemma now for New Zealand and Tim Southie

01:51It's the England hundred comes up perfectly played

01:57Expensive over what are New Zealand going to do

02:02Oh now he dropped short and he'll get picked away for four more

02:05This is a momentum changer and a head-scratcher

02:16Joe Root has put some serious pressure back on Michael Bracell this over's gone for 16 already that was a long hop that deserved what it got

02:23Too wide lovely shot Joe roots and he'll pick up four more

02:38It's a miss support delivery from Neil Wagner too much width

02:44Way too much work. It's a free hit for Joe root

02:48It's not going to miss out on there and despite the best efforts of Cougar line racism

02:54That's the length and it doesn't carry

03:00It's all encouragement

03:02It's two they haven't carried

03:05It slipped cordon has to come up

03:07Maybe this wouldn't have carried anyway because it was played with nice soft hands from root

03:11You just let it

03:13Come to him

03:18Come to him

03:47And Joe Root passes 50 once more in Test Match Cricket, the runs keep coming.

04:17Keep coming with ease if you're Joe Root. Short and wide and able to put that away. Hand up.

04:29Root again and he's hit that beautifully again. This time it was thrown up. Root took the bait and was too good.

04:46He's halfway posted back mid on but he's hitting with the breeze Joe Root and it's the great footwork that gets him to the pitch of the ball.

04:56And then just eases it over that deepish mid on. Takes it all the way.

05:04What do you think of your brace will? Every time you throw it up Root's up to you. He's got the courage to do it again. He does.

05:12Oh and Root a little dabble. It was in the air for some time but it would have been a great catch. Four more.

05:18It's just dictating terms now Joe Root toying with Michael Bracewell. A half chance. A quarter chance there but showing his quality.

05:36And they give a quick single and it has to be quick and Joe Root's asking a lot of his captain.

05:46Yeah not ideal when you've got a sore knee and you're struggling to run.

05:54Oh is it. Through the vacant cordon. Through the edge. They've toyed around with Slip and Gully in that position.

06:04And not for the first time the ball has gone straight through the gap.

06:12You can chase all you like. You can chase all you like and it won't matter.

06:22This is massive from Joe Root.

06:24He's gone ten rows back. Great use of the feet. Out of the sweet spot.

06:28Great swing of the bat. And he knew straight away. The only man getting close to catching that was the bloke that was sitting in 24e.

06:42Now that one just finds a way through.

06:47Just the one from the over. 200.

06:50The 200 comes up for England. Five down. 56 overs.

06:55Well, Joe Root pulls out of the shot in the end.

07:11This must be horrible for Tom Blunt.

07:16That's an amazing stop.

07:17Joe Root has lobbed that in the air. It's taken at mid-wicket.

07:27This is Neil Wagner's day.

07:29He is back on the scene with a bang.

07:33And there was an element of premeditation here from Joe Root.

07:37He'd seen the field set largely on that onside. He thought there was a way over.

07:43But he has clothed it. And it's cost him his wicket.

07:47Joe Root sitting up outside. Leg stump almost like he was going to play the ball through the offside.

07:53And in the end, Wagner skidding the ball on.

07:56Perhaps doing him for a little bit of pace.

07:58And what a breakthrough.

08:00Neil Wagner reliving the glory days.

08:03Huge wicket for New Zealand. England lose their seventh.

08:06And the bowlers have to do the job. England 2.02 for seven. Root and a magnificent 95.
