New Zealand crush England by 253 runs in 2nd test at The Oval as Henry rips
through the tail
LONDON (AP) --- New Zealand won The Oval test by 253 runs after routing England
for 209 just 48 minutes into the fifth and final day Sunday.
The crushing win followed England's own big win at Lord's and sends the series
to a decider in Nottingham starting on Thursday.
England resumed on 182-5 with an improbable target of 463 and fast bowler Matt
Henry took the last five wickets.
The metronomic Henry gave a masterclass with a spell of 5-3 in 5.1 overs.
They earned him 6-29 in the innings and, after his 5-80 in the first innings,
11-109 in the match, the best-ever match figures by a New Zealand bowler
against England.
Henry also achieved his first 10-wicket match haul in his 35th test.
