From Morning Report, 7:41 am on 4 April 2018

Tail-ender Ish Sodhi hit a gutsy half century as the Black Caps fought a defiant rearguard action to hold on for a draw in the second test and secure a first series win over England since 1999. Winners of the first test in Auckland by an innings and 49 runs, New Zealand were 256 for eight when the umpires offered Sodhi the light, still 126 runs in arrears but with the all-important draw secure. Black Caps coach Mike Hesson speaks to Philippa Tolley about the win.
