Cricket: Southee's six appeal too much for England

Agence France-PresseMay 19, 2013 07:46
Tim Southee took six wickets as New Zealand wrapped up England's second innings inside 10 overs on the fourth day of the first Test at Lord's on Sunday. The seamer finished with figures of six wickets for 50 runs in 19 overs as England were bowled out for 213. However, that left New Zealand needing 239 -- which would be the highest total of the match were they to achieve it -- for victory. Much would depend on how their top order fared against England new-ball duo James Anderson and Stuart Broad in still overcast conditions favouring seam bowlers.
