Happy to wake up to this score as an England fan. Think it would already have to be one of the highest ever 4th innings chases at Lords for NZ to win. Would love to see us declare over night or maybe add another quick 50 runs in the first hour in the morning then go for the win. Think this will show the difference between the captains though. Would expect McCullum to probably do one of those 2 things, but Cook is more likely to bat out the first session to make sure there is no chance at all of losing, but then not leave enough time to get 10 wickets.
