Kyle Jamieson to Atkinson, out Caught&Bowled!! Top edge goes straight up and it's a dolly for Jamieson. Was just terribly late on the pull there. Short of length outside off, Atkinson is in no position for the shot, his arms are cramped for room and he spoons it off the top-edge. The chances of Jamieson dropping that are one in a million. Such a sitter. Atkinson c and b Kyle Jamieson 14(32) [4s-1]

William ORourke to Atkinson, no run, ambitious appeal for leg before but Rod Tucker remains unperturbed. Oh hello! New Zealand have gone up for a review and this is missing leg stump by a mile. No bat involved says ball tracking. Pitching outside leg, so no need to go further. What a waste of a review. The inswinging yorker that beat Atkinson on the inside-edge and hit him outside leg stump and not sure what prompted Latham to go upstairs...
