And finally, Auckland, and then we can all go home and go to bed

Briefly, as it's now 23:20 and I want to go to bed:

• England are declare their first innings closed on 200-5 (Cook 125*), after just 40 overs; Captain Cook later explains this is a ploy to win a cricket match despite an flat pitch, a home team hell bent on drawing the series and weather which would not be out of place in North Wales. 
• New Zealand are dismissed for 162 (McCullum 88*, Panesar 8-22).
• England declare their second innings closed for 250-5 (Bairstow 132) off 50 overs.
• The fourth day is, unfortunately, lost to rain.
• New Zealand are dismissed for 162 in their second innings. 

It is later discovered by The Sun that Kevin Pietersen has faked his knee injury, because he is anxious to get his tomatoes planted before March is out - little does he know it might as well be mid-December. Unfortunately, The Sun are only able to get their scoop by hacking into the England batsman's 'phone, and later have to print a front page apology.
