Rain frustrates New Zealand at tea

By , Rugby Editor
Rain halts New Zealand's progress at tea on day four of the second Test against England at Headingley.

Rain has frustrated New Zealand at tea on day four of the second Test against England at Headingley.

The hosts, who are chasing a world-record total of 455 to win the match, have reached 44-0.

England finished the morning session on 23-0 before persistent showers forced tea to be taken early with just a further 21 runs added to their total.

Alastair Cook (18 not out) and Adam Lyth (24 not out) will resume at the crease when play continues.
